Mountains Vs. Valleys

05/24/23 • 22 min

Today we listen to six species of birds as we compare three pairs of birds, one that primarily lives at high elevation with a similar species that lives at lower elevation. We listen to Black-Capped Chickadee, and Mountain Chickadee (1:21), Woodhouse's Scrub-Jay and Steller's Jay (with a brief mention of California Scrub-Jay) (11:41) and finally House Finch and Cassin's Finch (16:47).

Thanks and Happy Birding.
