Member Webinar with Matthew Young: The Evening Grosbeak Road to Recovery Project and the Stokes Guide to Finches of the United States and Canada
Tuesday, February 17 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Please join the BBC on the evening of February 17 from 7PM to 8:30PM for a member only webinar with Matthew Young from the Finch Research Network (FiRN). Matthew will talk about both The Evening Grosbeak Road to Recovery Project and The Stokes Guide to Finches of the United States and Canada.
From backyards to wilderness peaks, finches are some of the most exciting, mysterious, and popular group of songbirds. In The Stokes Guide to Finches of the United States and Canada Lillian Stokes, best-selling author of 35 Stokes guides, and finch expert Matthew Young introduce you to the 43 finches of the United States and Canada from feeder-favorite goldfinches to Red Crossbill tribes, to least known mountain-top Black Rosy-Finches to endangered Hawaiian honeycreepers.
The webinar will also focus on the Evening Grosbeak Road to Recovery Project. With a 92% decline since 1970, Evening Grosbeak (Coccothraustes vespertinus) was cited as the steepest declining landbird in the continental United States and Canada in the Partners in Flight 2016 Landbird Conservation Plan.
