I finally caught up with the 2 AMERICAN TREE SPARROWS at Kenilworth Park
this morning. These birds have been hanging out just north of a set of
goalposts that are growing at the edge of shrubbery that is about 6-10 feet
tall. That, however, is not exactly where I found them; they were in the
grassy area to the northeast some 50 yard from the goal post. After I
flushed them, they flew back to the goal post. And about an hour later I
found them just north of the goal posts in the shrubs.

When it rains, it pours, and so about an hour later I found a single
AMERICAN TREE SPARROW just east of the most southerly ponds at Kenilworth
Aquatic Gardens. This area is at least 2000 feet from where I saw the pair
of Tree Sparrows, and so I believe it to be a different bird.
