I just refound Jay's Clay-colored Sparrow. It is singing profusely in the
northeast corner of the southern part of the tree farm in the hedgerow
between the north and south stands. I managed to get some mediocre photos.

Livia and I just heard a probable CLAY-COLORED SPARROW singing from the
Christmas tree farm on Lick Street in Summerhill, just north of Rt. 90 on
the west side of the road. We are along the first stretch of this farm,
about where the first slightly forested area begins on the east side. The
bird gave several soft song bouts from somewhere out in the small spruces,
but it was singing very quietly and we were not able to get a visual. We
have waited around a while but it has not called again. Song sounded
typical of this species, a series of dry, buzzy notes. Habitat looks
perfect for them as well. I will post if we have any luck refinding it.
