Monitoring Oregon Vesper Sparrows

Dr. Sarah Rockwell from the Klamath Bird Observatory told us all about the Oregon Vesper Sparrow and the efforts to learn more about this imperiled species. This species may not look like much, but it is an indicator of the health of its habitat and along its migration route.
