Europe Raised Rights Sparrows 
10,000 Birds
MARCH 3, 2016
Today is the United Nations World Wildlife Day, a time to celebrate and raise awareness of the living world around us. Europe: The sun is scorching the area, and the birds are nowhere to be seen. Raising and lowering its head, like stretching. The closer one raises her head, than lies back. The other two are motionless.

No, seriously, a brown warbler with stripes in central Europe really means you are either looking at a Grasshopper Warbler or a Sedge Warbler. Sedge Warbler (left) and Grasshopper Warbler (right – duh!). The only thing to focus on then is the head pattern and flanks & undertail coverts.

I observed my first GS eagles in India some 8 years ago, then the first for Europe in Greece only last December , and finally I have them in my home country list. And so, driving through the snowfall I spotted what I believed to be Tree Sparrows foraging on the road in front of me.

We follow the tire tracks in an off-white, salty soil and then, without a word of warning, our guide/driver turns into the bushes, driving left and right… until one and then another Short-eared Owl flushes in front of us. Ashy-crowned Sparrow-Lark Eremopterix grisea. House Swift Apus affinis. Lesser) Pied Kingfisher Ceryle rudis.

Even more than warbler, shorebird, and sparrow identification, this is a field that tests our endurance (gull watching is too often done in bitter cold, windy conditions), patience (even getting one good photo can take hours as you try to separate the ‘interesting gull’ from the flock), observational skills (so many plumages!)

Unlike other bird races where participants keep tight-lipped about bird species as mundane as a House Sparrow , this event gives a prize to the team that helps the most. Yes, that really is a bird and it doesn’t have anything to do with a tiny country in Europe. Raising $67,000 plus for conservation! :
