Young birder George Casselberry eyes birds despite blindness
George Casselberry, a remarkable 14-year-old birder from Laurel, identifies nearly all eastern birds by sound using audio learning. Legally blind, he relies on recordings, Braille, and a computer to study, sings in chorus, plays trombone, and has won awards for his bird-call talents while living on 29 bird-friendly acres in Lawrence County.
