Join Mass Audubon for a talk and walk. The focus? The tricky, skulky, secretive, and absolutely stunning sparrows that spend their fall in Berkshire County. Together, we will learn helpful tips for identification, the various species that breed and migrate through the Berkshires and how to enjoy their subtleties as they dart and dive into grasses and shrubs. Bring binoculars and sturdy walking shoes. We will be exploring the gardens in search of sparrows!
