To inform, educate and support the development of birding and bird conservation around the world.
To provide high quality webinars and other learning content about birds and birding.
We value ethical birding activities, and offering the best quality learning experiences to benefit all members of the birding community while supporting bird and environment conservation.
Learn-the-Birds was created by Derek Keats and Etienne Marais back in the early days of the COVID-19 lockdowns. Since then, it has evolved into a community of bird enthusiasts who gather on the third Thursday of every month to spend an hour learning about a specific aspect of birding from an expert on the subject at hand.
The webinars have covered a diverse range of topics, including conservation, birding destinations, bird biology, and the art of birding itself. An extensive collection of past webinars is currently available on our YouTube channel at https://youtube.com/@learnthebirds. These are well worth watching on their own! You can check out what’s happening and register for upcoming webinars at https://learnthebirds.com.
