[va-richmond-general] clay-colored sparrow at Dutch gap

["Bob Reilly" <rjreilly@xxxxxxx>]

Susan,

We banded a hatching year clay-colored sparrow at Dutch Gap today.  Larry
Robinson, Mary Arginteanu and John Dillard were
there with me.  Larry removed it from the net and came back to the station
with the news that we might have a clay-colored sparrow.  A careful
examination confirmed the ID.  Is the bird of interest to VARCOM?
