Color in Bird Plumage

Speaker: Dominic Sherony

There are fifteen ways in nature in which color arises. Three of these different physical mechanisms account for the array of colors we see in bird plumages. We will explore these mechanisms and how they interact to provide the spectacular appearance of birds.

Dominic is a member of RBA.
