Subject: [MDBirding] Ho Co (Hit the 12!)


Did it this morning ...finally!...and hit a 12 sparrow day. Our first
Clay-colored of the fall hanging with the Field sparrows. A surprise late
Grasshopper (what a great year it has been for them) and 3 Vespers. Sharps
at Waterford farm is open to the public and they are kind to birders but
there were 1000 children there when I left. www.sharpfarm.com for hours and
directions. I could not relocate the sparrow but a few people that got there
right after we found it did see it.

Here is a picture of the Grasshopper.....
