Little Brown Jobs. That's how many of us identify sparrows and finches, mostly because they are LBJs! But each of the 28 species we find in northeast Ohio has one or more features to help lead to its identity. Through lots of photographs this program introduces you to these small birds, where to find them, when to expect to see them, and how to separate them from similar species. It's time to put a name to the face.

- and when to expect them.

Matt Valencic is a long-time birder as well as photographer, native plant enthusiast, educator, and Kirtland Bird Club member. Matt is very active in educational programming for his "home" club, the Audubon Society of Cleveland and is the force behind Birdquest, a 24 hour team challenge to find the most possible species in the Chagrin River Watershed. He is exceedingly generous with his time and has given speaker programs and led field trips for Kirtland Bird Club. When he's not out birding or documenting his sightings on ebird or doing a program or field trip or tending his garden, he can be found baking with his grandaughter or spending time with one of his other family members.
