On Friday 12/12 from 12:00 - 1:00 pm the previously Western Kingbird & Lark Sparrow were still present at Vessey's Orchard Rd in Somerset County. 

When my wife Jane and I arrived, Jen Elmer had the kingbird in her scope, in the field behind the open barn. 

Jane and I found the Lark Sparrow near the large pond. Later Jen and Jeff Culler found the Lark Sparrow across the dirt road and near the smaller pond. One other person also found the sparrow. 

The Lark Sparrow was loosely associated with a group of Field Sparrows. The Lark Sparrow continues to sing. 

Also present was a group of 12 Pine Siskins and 9 Bald Eagles.
