YouTube Tutorial: Five “Peeps” of DuPage County

The DBC Board is pleased to present Mini-Tutorials on the DBC YouTube Channel.

This week we launch the mini-tutorial about the Five "Peeps" or sandpipers of DuPage. Identify Baird's, Least, White-rumped, Semipalmated, and Western Sandpiper by noting relative size, leg color, how far their wings extend, and more. Presented by Denis Kania.

As meetings and field trips have been altered for the short term due to the Covid-19 the Board offers a way to connect with you and enrich your birding experience.

Several Mini-tutorials are live and focus on: The updated checklist of birds in DuPage; the return of Ospry in DuPage; the Tanagers; Hairy vs. Downy Woodpeckers; Pine Warbler vs. Yellow-throated Vireo; yellow, female warblers; separating Louisiana and Northern Waterthrushes, a look at early-arriving small flycatchers and then a drill down on bird topography to help you analyze what you see when you look at a bird. And more fascinating topics will follow.
