Swamp Sparrow
We had almost two inches of rain yesterday afternoon and evening, but it was sunny and windy this morning. I saw 20 species on the trail between 9:00 and 11:00, although they were all common winter species. A Swamp Sparrow and a female Yellow-bellied Sapsucker made for an interesting morning, and the hawks continue to be harrassed by the crows. Our resident, tail-less Turkey Vulture made an appearance.
