Description

Sparrows are considered one of the more difficult groups of birds to identify in the field because of their similarity in plumage and secretive nature. Many birders simply give up on ID attempts and list 'sparrow sp.' or 'little brown bird.' This talk will help to give confidence when making cryptic field identifications by looking at how sparrows here in the Northwoods are much more than just small, brownish, birds.

 

Bird Club meeting begins at 6:30, program at 7:00 pm.  All are welcome to attend!  This is a free program and will be held in The Lodge at the Discovery Center.
