The first installment of the BirdNote Storytelling Series was on Monday, June 28, at 5 p.m. Pacific Time. The audience enjoyed an evening of inspiration from the collection of essays titled When Birds Are Near: Dispatches from Contemporary Writers. 

• Dr. J. Drew Lanham, BirdNote board member emeritus, will read from “Red-headed Love Child,” which chronicles his journey as a Black man into the heart of America in search of Greater Prairie-Chickens.
• Christina Baal will read from “In the Eyes of the Condor,” her near-hair-brained quest to see a rare California Condor. 
• Susan Fox Rogers, editor of When Birds Are Near, will reflect on her dual passions for birds and for books.
