There are 63 covered bridges in the province of New Brunswick and I love finding them in those 'out of the way' places. I have photographed most all of them, with only about 4 or 5 yet to locate. I still have many photos yet to post on my New Brunswick Covered Bridges blog. If you would like to visit and see more pictures of Covered Bridges, just click on the picture above.

I think this is such a nice key to identify them! I don't see all of those and the ones that I do see are pretty easy to identify. I had the most trouble with Tree sparrows and chipping sparrows. I always have to look them up to be sure I have the right one.
Excellent aide to IDing those frustrating SBBs! (small brown birds)
Ann...this is wonderful as I get my sparrows confused..Love the technique and so happy to see your posts in my reader...Michelle
Deborah, I( read in your comment the same frustrations I used to feel about their id's .small brown birds indeed!
Very thoughtful of you to show us this sparrow diagram. Thank you:)
That was a great idea.Sparrows are sometimes hard to idedntify.
Blessings,Ruth
