Victoria Natural History Society-BIRDERS NIGHT


Ethno-ornithology is Way Cool Because… UBC Beaty Biodiversity Museum’s Assistant Curator of Tetrapods, Ildiko Szabo, will help us explore the intersect between bird feather identification and anthropology artifacts. This field of inquiry, ethno-ornithology, combines avian identification, avian forensics, cosmology, cultural practices, land conservation, and the ‘Rights of Nature’ Ecuadorian constitutional amendment. Discover how sleuthing bird identifications can confirm, or can lead to discovering the cultural origin of stunningly beautiful feathered artifacts.
