Happy Bird Year!
A Leconte's Sparrow was seen yesterday off the Green Springs Trail in James
City County just west of Williamsburg. This bird was first observed 27
November at this same location. However, several subsequent attempts to
relocate it proved unsuccessful.
It has been seen at the base of a large earthen berm now part of the fallow
remnants of a former portion of Mainland Farm. The farm is adjacent to the
Pont at Jamestown housing development, about a mile walk from the entrance to
the trail at Jamestown High School.
