Join trip leaders Preston Ballard and Mia Keriazes for a sparrow walk at Boulware Springs Park, a City of Gainesville Park located just north of Payne’s Prairie. Meet in the larger parking lot by the pavilion: https://maps.app.goo.gl/GC54yEonLJchUGPG6?g_st=ipcOur specific site will be the Sandhill Restoration portion of Boulware Springs. Boulware is a great spot for birds year-round, but tends to really kick up gear as the winter season rolls around and sparrows begin to migrate in!
Our birds of focus will be primarily Sparrows - with targets like Swamp Sparrow, Savannah Sparrow, Grasshopper Sparrow, Field Sparrow, and Lincoln’s Sparrow. But other birds like Red-Headed Woodpeckers, American Kestrels, and various Buntings may be present!
