[va-bird] A 7-Sparrow Day at Fort Smith Park, Arlington

VA-Birders,

    For the 10 NVBC members on our bird walk at Fort C. F. Smith Park, 
Arlington, this morning, the highlights included 7 species of sparrows.  We 
had one each of Vesper, Chipping, and Field Sparrows, 3 Fox Sparrows, several 
Song and White-throated Sparrows, and a flock of at least 24 Dark-eyed 
Juncos.  We also had a pair of Ospreys, a pair of Red-shouldered Hawks, a 
displaying pair of Northern Flickers, and an Eastern Phoebe.  The 
Sharp-shinned Hawk that flew over as I was about to get into my car to leave 
made a total of 40 species for the morning.
