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.
