On Tuesday morning, a VESPER SPARROW was offering very long and close views along the far parking lot and roadside portions of the nest-box knoll in Sapsucker Woods. This lot is perennially an excellent location for close viewing of this species in the second week of April (including the gravel portions out toward Route 13, as well as the grassy edges and small nearby trees).
I also saw a WILSON’S SNIPE in the Fuller Wetlands. I spent a few minutes scanning for Sunday’s woodcock near the Podell Boardwalk, but didn’t find it.
