This looks very good for a Vesper Sparrow to me, Jennifer -- especially the prominent white eye-ring. Did you notice white outer tail feathers when (or if) it flew?

The bird was seen amidst a flurry of juncos and a few juvenile White-crowneds. I'd like confirmation (or not), since this would be a life bird for me. http://www.flickr.com/photos/49427613@N03/10575288563/ Thank you for any input, -- Jennifer Ambrose Bayview, Milwaukee County #################### You received this email because you are subscribed to the Wisconsin Birding Network (Wisbirdn).
