Hi all!

The Voice of the Naturalist (the DC area hotline) for Tues. 11/17
reported that a Harris's Sparrow had been found at Cape Henlopen, DE
this past Saturday (11/14).  Has anyone else reported seeing this bird
on any days after the initial sighting?  I am planning to go to the
Delaware shore on Saturday morning, and would appreciate any info that
anyone can provide.  I wasn't planning on going as far south as Cape
Henlopen, but I will change my plans if the sparrow is still hanging
around.

I have missed Harris's Sparrows on several occasions in the past, and
this would be a life bird for me.

Thanks in advance.
