Arjan Dwarshuis used his grandpa's binoculars to look at birds as a boy. That fascination remained. His parents' backyard became the entire globe. In 2016, he even broke the world record for observing as many different bird species as possible in one year: he counted 6,852! Arjan Dwarshuis makes the popular Birdspotcast, has written several books and is a passionate advocate for the importance of birds. He talks about flight techniques, food preferences, choice of partners, migration, in short about the lives of a number of birds and why they are so valuable to our nature and biodiversity. Afterwards, he signs his books. 23-04-2024 Studium Generale organizes public lectures on the most recent and exciting developments in science, technology, politics and culture.
