Nelson’s Sparrow at Finderne Wetlands; Vespers continue in Hanover, Oct. 27, 2012

From Tom Smith:
This morning at Finderne Wetlands we found a good number of sparrows, including a Nelson’s Sparrow on the east side of the north-south creek. (It is possible there was a small flock of ~3-4 of them.)
I put a picture at http://www.flickr.com/photos/tsmzth/8129093501/.
Also in that area was a Snipe, along with the more usual Savannahs, Songs, Swamps, Myrtles, Palms, etc.
[Editor’s Note: this is the 4th Nelson’s Sparrow found in Somerset County this season and 2nd for Finderne]

The trails behind Veteran’s Memorial Park in Hanover featured a continuing Vesper Sparrow, along with a few Savannah and Field Sparrows, a Phoebe, and a large flock of Siskins.
==================================
To today’s Veteran’s Memorial Park list, Jamie Glydon adds another Vesper Sparrow and a Fox Sparrow.
