based in mid missouri - boone county
i hope to find and photograph all of missouri's sparrows (with a few drops/adds). i figure completing that goal will require visiting all regions of the state, all types of ecosystems, and all weather seasons. that process should bring me in contact with a large portions of this states organisms, ecosystems, geographical features, state parks, and any odds/ends i need to check off/out.

brad jacob's "birds in missouri" is worth mentioning, what a great book.

Revisit some lower quality observations of common species and clean them up. Earlier observations, I just took photos, and didn't go the extra mile to make sure i had proper light, or sticks/grass in front of the target. A good example would be common starling.
Double Check Photos for hiding species (always on the list, always finding stuff....)
