Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

Look up with the Center for Birds of Prey
For more than 25 years the Avian Conservation Center has worked to identify and address vital environmental issues through avian medicine, research, education programs, and conservation initiatives. The Center has three primary operating departments that work together to support this goal: the Center for Birds of Prey, the Avian Medical Clinic, and the South Carolina Oiled Bird Treatment Facility.
The Center is located just 16 miles north of downtown Charleston in Awendaw, which is part of the Bulls Bay Historic Passage, a relatively undeveloped and pristine natural area that includes parts of Cape Romain National Wildlife Refuge and Francis Marion State Forest. The Center’s large public facility, aptly named Wingswood, allows visitors the opportunity to experience birds of prey in a natural setting and to learn more about avian science and environmental conservation. Visit and discover the life of raptors through guided walking tours, natural history discussions, and captivating flight demonstrations. The Center’s public facility is open on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays allowing visitors access to one of the nation’s largest and most diverse collections of live birds of prey including eagles, owls, falcons, and more!
