You're likely familiar with house sparrows (they’re everywhere!), but have you seen a white-throated sparrow? A song sparrow? A dark-eyed junco?? Let’s talk about these and other important (and cute) sparrow species that you can find in Boston during the winter. We’ll learn about a few common sparrows in Massachusetts, and then we’ll go for a trail walk to look and listen for birds. This event will be partially outdoors, so please dress according to the weather. Experienced and beginner birders welcome!
