Yesterday on a hike of Memphis TOS led by Martha Waldron, 3 Le Conte's Sparrows were seen on the trail due north of Chickasaw Lake in Shelby Farms. Today Susan and I went to the same location and observed 11, many within 6-20 feet. They are in a field consisting primarily of Foxtail Grass, Redtop, and Johnson Grass. They are in the Johnson Grass and feeding on the seeds. If you follow the trail from the west end of the lake you should follow it until it does an S curve and turns back north for about 200 yards. This is the primary location of the birds. Mac McWhirter Memphis, Shelby County, TN
