Hello all, I just wanted to say that I did see the Harris's Sparrow this morning (10/26) between 7 and 8:00 a.m.. It was cooperatively hanging out with the White- crowns and Songs, and was very visible. It even gave several poor renditions of its song from the top pf the brushpile. It is an imm. with restricted black markings on the chest. Please note however that access is still restricted. The Howard County folks are working on arranging for more people to be able to see this bird. It seems as though it may hang out for a bit at least. Best wishes, Marshall Iliff miliff@aol.com
