The Nasketucket Bird Club will welcome well-known bird expert Jim Sweeney who will present “Birds of Texas” on Tuesday, November 26 at 6:00 pm at the Mattapoisett Public Library, 7 Barstow Street.
Jim will talk about the spring migration dynamics in Texas and the natural history of many of the specialty species of the Lower Rio Grande Valley, Big Bend National Park, and the Edwards Plateau. The focus will mostly be on species that may be unfamiliar to Massachusetts birders and locations that are particularly good during the spring migration in Texas.
Jim has been birding since the age of ten and enjoys the pursuit of common species as much as the rarities. He is particularly interested in seabirds, shorebirds, and sparrows.
The meeting is open to the public and handicapped accessible.
