McHenry (10/13-10/18) MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT After finding the Clay-colored Sparrow (CCSP) on Sunday, Jim and I have been keeping an eye on the Stienweg maintenance yard. In addition to sighting the CCSP again on Monday, and Thursday; we had a Vesper on Thursday, and Friday. By the way: During the Sit I saw a bird flash white outer tail feathers; moments later we found a lone Junco with the other sparrows. A juvenile White-crowned Sparrow (WCSP) was found on Monday, and an adult on Thursday. Soon the Fox and American Tree will arrive...
