Do Crows Have Language?

Federal Way United Methodist Church 29645 51st Ave SWA 98001, Auburn, Washington, United States

Humans are fascinated by crows because they share many of our characteristics. They’re smart, social, and make a variety of vocalizations. However, do they have a language like humans? In this talk, we’ll explore some past work on crow vocal communication, language in general, and recent Corvid research conducted with undergraduates at the University of Washington Bothell.

Swift Night Out – Vaux’s Swifts in Selleck, WA

Join us for a “Swift Night Out” in the small town of Selleck, WA to see the amazing Vaux’s swifts return for the evening to their brick-chimney, communal roost site. Each May, thousands of migrating Vaux’s Swifts stop off for a well-deserved rest on their long journey to northern Canada. While the number of Swift’s returning to this site is weather dependent, we can expect to see many hundreds or even thousands of birds after sunset. We will meet in Covington and carpool to Selleck to minimize our impact on this small community. In case of rain, we will reschedule the outing to the following week. See the links below for more details.
