Joanna Taylor and I led a group of 10 people this morning at Huntley
Meadows. It was a very pleasant, though cloudy morning and we had several
pretty good birds including Wilson's snipe, rusty blackbird and fox sparrow.
The fox sparrow was near the feeders at the visitor's center and
unfortunately seen only by the leaders as we were preparing the triplist.
