Hey folks in the mid-Atlantic area! Irene Pepperberg (author of
"Alex & Me") will be speaking at an event in Landsdowne, Va, on April 4th.
Saturday, April 4th
10:00 AM - 12:30 PM
18980 Upper Belmont Place
LANDSDOWNE, VA
Talk with Irene about her life with Alex the African Grey, who died last
year, and where she goes from here. Celebrated for her work in science
regarding the intelligence of parrots, Dr. Pepperberg continues her very
important work with other parrots in her lab at Brandeis University. She
might even show us first-hand how she trains birds in the lab by working
with Pepper, Leigh Ann Hartsfield’s very talented African Grey.
