just returned from helping with the Hustisford CBC. On this count, I found
another Savannah Sparrow. It is the second for me for this count year. I also
had one on the Cedar Grove Count. Without looking at the reports so far
received, I am aware of at least 2 other Savannahs found on counts this year --
marking for a minimum of 4 individuals. In the 71 years of WSO CBCs, there
have been only 18 years with Savannahs. The highest total was 5 individuals
found in 1999 on the Beloit Count. Hopefully these were correctly identified.
Outside of that, there were 4 Savannahs over 2 counts in 2003 and 4 over 4
counts in 2005.
This is shaping up as a great count year for sparrows. We might well set a
record for the most species of sparrows ever reported in a count year.
