I found 2 Nelson's Sharp-tailed Sparrows at Swan Harbor this  afternoon.  The 
first spent most of its time along the cornfield edge  of the dike grasses on 
the NE side of the impoundment.  Dave Webb later saw  it in the short grasses 
inside the impoundment.  I flushed a second bird  along the S dike.  The 
first bird was very cooperative and I even got a  decent digibino photo.  It was a 
very bright individual.  The second  bird I saw several times in flight and 
only once perched.  It was duller  than the first.  
 
The only shorebirds present were Semi Sands, Least Sands, and Semi  Plovers.
 
Last night I listened to a decent thrush flight over my house from  11-12.  
Swainson's Thrush - 60+
Gray-cheeked Thrush - 50+
Bicknell's Thrush - 4
Spotted Sandpiper - 1
