From goldfinches to crossbills, from backyards to wilderness peaks, finches are one of the most exciting, mysterious, and beloved groups of songbirds.

In this lively, information-packed talk featuring stunning photography, Lillian Stokes, best-selling author of 35 Stokes guides, and finch expert Matthew Young will introduce you to the 43 finches of the United States and Canada from feeder-favorite goldfinches to Red Crossbill tribes, to least known mountain-top Black Rosy Finches to endangered Hawaiian Finches with their own “Darwin’s finches”-like story.

The talk will cover finch identification, behavior, irruptions, how to attract and conserve finches, and more. Sprinkled throughout with quotes from the creative Quick Take chapter intros, filled with amazing facts, scientific knowledge, and gorgeous photos, this talk will leave you knowing so much more about the finches you thought you knew.
