Adam Kent - Identifying Winter Sparrows
Join Adam Kent as he shows us how to identify sparrows found in North Florida. Once you understand the basics of the combination of distribution, behavior, and appearance for this fascinating group of birds, you can begin to chip away at the term “little brown job” and get more out of your sparrowing experience.
An Anhinga sparked Adam’s passion for birds when he was a child. Since then, an enthusiasm for the natural world has led him to a variety of biologist positions including assessing sites for the Great Florida Birding Trail, working as Florida’s first Scrub-Jay Conservation Coordinator, and currently as a biological consultant and natural history tour leader. One of Adam’s birding highlights was making recordings that led to the description of a new species of bird in Mexico, the Nava’s Wren. Adam has been leading sparrow identification workshops since 2000.
