In June, I visited North Dakota for the first time. In order to raise our awareness, to remind us of what we have lost, and to inspire us to fight for Every.

Baird’s Sparrow, North Dakota. I viewed this Life Bird on my New Jersey Audubon North Dakota trip; it was not an easy bird to find, and a challenging one to photograph. John James Audubon first heard the sparrow in July, 1944, on a buffalo hunt in North Dakota. Another sparrow! ” [[link].
