Spring Tune-up – Which Witchity is Which
Sponsored by the Mascoma Chapter of NH Audubon

Becky Cook will help us re-learn the bird sounds of Spring, covering the usual suspects, with special focus on those sound-alikes that make us wonder.  Can you tell the difference between a Cape May and a Bay-breasted warbler? How about the well-known Chipper/Junco/Pine Warbler dilemma??  And don’t get me started on the Chestnut-sided/Magnolia/Redstart conundrum  (they don’t call’em Mag-starts for nuttin!)  When you hear the squeaky brakes of an Advance Transit bus, do you look for the Brown Creeper??  And why doesn’t the White-breasted Nuthatch ever get that car started????

Find out the answers, or at least help explore the questions, as we meet for our Spring Tune-Up.
