Learn about winter birds Join us for the final 2018 Sunday with the Library program – Winter Birds – on Sunday, Nov. 4, 2 p.m. at the Warrenton central library. According to the Virginia Avian Records Committee of the Virginia Society of Ornithology, more than 470 species of birds call Virginia home. While it is easy enough to identify the cardinal, robin or hawk in your backyard, many others may be less familiar. David Wiedenfeld, Senior Conservation Scientist for the American Bird Conservancy, will discuss birds that can be found in Fauquier County, highlighting birds that: • Winter in Fauquier County • Can be seen in your yard • Come to feeders • Feed on the ground • Don’t often come to feeders Sunday with the Library is a monthly series of author visits, presentations and lectures sponsored by Fauquier County Public Library and Friends of the Fauquier Library. Sunday with the Library is a free program. Details about 2019 Sunday with the Library programs will be re-

leased soon; upcoming topics include: • Folk Duo Andy and Judy Daigle • Fauquier Ghost Stories • Holiday Decorating • Native Plants Dr. Wiedenfeld received his doctorate from Florida State University. His work has focused on bird population ecology and conservation biology. He served for five years as director of research at the Sutton Avian Research Center and was head of the department of Vertebrate Ecology at the Charles Darwin Research Station in the Galapagos Islands.
