[birdky] Nelson's Sharp-tailed Sparrow Still Present

Colleen and I arrived at Hays-Kennedy Park ~5:15p. Win Ahrens arrived soon
after.
Several dogs were zigzagging right where the Nelson's had been reported. We
watched anxiously, certain the bird would show himself. Not the case. Colleen
had to leave for a meeting around 6:15. Win left around the same time.
Barbara Woerner arrived around 7:00 with a tape of the Nelson's. As soon as
she played the tape, the bird came from the exact location previously
described by Major - tire tracks where someone had driven across the ditch.
Good looks were had in the spotting scope.

P.S. Don't let the dogs get you down. The bird never flushed when they ran
through the area where it was later seen.
