Today we talk with local author of Love Story with Birds, Bard literature professor and bird admirer Derek Furr about how bringing attention to the natural world can open up new realms of insight and understanding.

He is a literature professor and Dean of Teacher Education at Bard College. He is the author of three collections of poetry and prose--Love Story With Birds, Suite For Three Voices, and Semitones--as well as critical works about poetry, sound, and performance.
Derek is an active participant and featured speaker at the excellent local nature group John Burroughs Natural History Society (JBNHS).
