Prerequisites —
  Birds of Southern California - introductory visual workshop
  Learning California Bird Sounds - introductory aural workshop.
  (If you think you are fairly familiar with the common birds of southern California and their sounds, you may enroll without the prerequisites.)
Description —  
  This workshop will pick up where the prerequisite workshops leave off. We'll learn the sounds of some birds of the coastal side of the mountains that are less frequently found or maybe just less frequently identified aurally. Habitats to be covered include mudflats, marshes, open fields, scrublands, and woodland. Visual identification will be included for those species that were not covered in the Birds of Southern California workshop. There will also be plenty of review of the sounds in the Learning Bird Sounds workshop.
