["Roger Mayhorn" <mayhorn@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,
This morning I had 5 sparrow species feeding in the yard, 6 if you count a 
House Sparrow, which is technically a finch.
There were Chipping, Song, White-crowned, White-throated and a Lincoln's. The 
Lincoln's was often chased off by the White-crowned, the White-throated and 
even an Eastern Towhee. The Lincoln's left, but came back later to our small 
stream. To my knowledge this is the first time I have seen a Lincoln's at the 
stream. I guess it's the extreme drought that is bringing them in. Photos of 
the Lincoln's can be found at
