Noah Stryker: Where the Wild Birds Are
Saturday, November 7, at 1:00 PM
Grinton I. Will Library
1500 Central Park Avenue (near Tuckahoe Road), Yonkers
Parking available. Light refreshments will be served
Take a whirlwind tour of the world from a birder’s-eye view. Noah Strycker roams the many habitats that wild birds call home to bring you the ultimate guide to birding planet Earth. Birds have close relationships with their natural environments, from owls in boreal forests to hardy penguins in Antarctica, chattering parrots in the Amazon rainforest, and showy birds-of-paradise in the jungles of New Guinea. This presentation—based on Noah’s groundbreaking National Geographic book, Birder’s Atlas of the World—will broaden your horizons and give you a fresh perspective on where the wild birds are. He'll also update us on his worldwide Big Year and what he's been up to since that record-breaking adventure in 2015.
Called a “Travel Pioneer” by the BBC and “Birdman of Razzmatazz” by Newsweek, Noah Strycker is a writer and bird man based in Eugene, Oregon. In 2015, during a quest spanning 41 countries and all seven continents, he set a world record by finding 6,042 species of birds in one calendar year, as recounted in his popular book, Birding Without Borders. He is Associate Editor of Birding Magazine, and has guided nearly 100 trips to Antarctica and the Arctic—literally spreading the joy of birds from pole to pole! Noah’s latest book, published by National Geographic, is the Birder’s Atlas of the World. While traveling the globe, Noah also writes and illustrates monthly letters by mail, available at www.LettersFromNoah.com.
Several of his books will be available for purchase and signing.
Entrance free. No need to register.
