Here in suburban Nashville, Davidson county, I can tell we are having an  
irruptive year when I get a Fox Sparrow in the yard, first in my five years  
being here. When I lived out in country on the edge of the county there were  
always a few on the farm, but would only be seen in the yard, around the bird  
feeder, when there was snow cover on the ground. The color on this individual 
is  
more brown than red.
Purple Finches made an appearance here for a few days in November, and one  
Red-breasted Nuthatch has been seen or heard for the last week or so.
