Hi all, I was very surprised to see a very red FOX SPARROW under my feeder in northeast Ithaca this morning. A late record and one of the few I've had in my suburban yard. Like others I've had a single AM TREE SPARROW for the past few days -- also surprisingly uncommon in my yard -- and two female PURPLE FINCHES (the first I've had since October).
