"Above the Sound". A Walk with an Ornithologist "Rustles and Trills", August 20, 2026

🎶 The world of birds is impossible to imagine without sounds.

🦅 Singing, calls, alarm signals, and mating calls help birds communicate, find mates, defend territory, and navigate their environment.

🏔️ As part of the "Above the Sound" festival of music and science (August 12–26, 2026, Karachay-Cherkessia), participants will learn how and why birds use sound, how the voices of different species differ, and what information scientists can gain from studying them.

🐦 Studying bird voices helps to better understand the behavior of feathered creatures and the processes occurring in nature.

✨ This is an opportunity to hear the world around you in a new way and discover one of the most amazing forms of communication in the animal kingdom.
