I got a call this morning from Tony Lance (who found the birds), and we met in
Springfield and
drove back out to see them (between Springfield and Cedar Hill). We had two
places where they
were eating from the side of the road, three Vespers in the first group, and
two in the second for a five Vesper day!
In each spot they were quite skittish, and I wasn't able to get any decent
photos, but we got
some great looks with our binoculars and heard their call notes (no song
unfortunately).
I was happy to see the blattant white outer tail feathers as they flew away...
....now I'll always know a Vesper when I see one.
Good birding,
