Great Course

Talisa Chelick

This course was exactly what I needed to begin my bird language journey. I really enjoyed the detailed lectures and had a lot of fun doing the 'bird sits' and other recommended activities...can't wait for the next course!

Brilliant course

The bird language course was brilliant! I learned so much and am already recognizing more behavioral attributes when I sit on my porch...well worth it.
