Earlier today I was trying to get a visual ID on a singing Savannah Sparrow 
when I was VERY surprised to get a brief glimpse of what appeared to be an 
adult Harris's Sparrow in breeding plumage. I'm pretty sure it couldn't have 
been anything else. The bird was in the brush/scrub along the lakeshore to the 
east of the rugby field that is north of Milwaukee's North Point. Only saw it 
once, for maybe five seconds.

Oh, yeah, I did finally get a visual ID on the Savannah as it sang. :-)
