Great idea, Bonnie!
I'm not looking for any particular species.  I'm just a rank beginner
trying to learn to tell one from another, and as of now I tend to think
everything is a Song Sparrow until proven otherwise.  So I figure I need
more practice.
I hope some of your sparrow walks will be on Sundays; I'd love to join
in!
Thanks for the heads up,
Carrol
