Unfortunately, no.

There were tons of sparrows near the wood pile area.  It was nearly dark by
the time I got there and most of them were -as usual- conveniently in
between me and the setting sun.  Of those that I could ID in that area were
many Songs, a few White Throats, and dozens of Juncos.  The only reason I
found the Lincoln was because he was singing.  There were hundreds of
sparrow-like birds in that field area, but that's the way it will stay
without any light.

On another note: The sunset was spectacular from that spot though.

	Cool.  Has anyone else heard LISP singing during migration?  Many
birds
	will sing differently during migration than they do on the breeding
	grounds.  It would be wonderful to get a recording of this possible
	"migration song."
	Are you going to look for the sparrow on Friday evening?
Unfortunately,
	I can not try this evening.
