I marked a single Field Sparrow in my little yard list book on Monday,
realizing it was a first for the yard in eight years of listing. Yesterday in
the late afternoon, it returned to forage in the grass and shrubs, and was
joined by a buddy FISP. Today, it had figured out the feeder platform.
What next? I'd better hide the car keys! I don't know if it's that rare, but
it was a pleasant surprise/learning for me, and offered extended viewing.
On very rare occasions, I've had the ground denizens, junco and a white
throated sparrow, alight on the feeders. Always surprised.
