While walking the dogs late yesterday afternoon I explored the abandoned stretch of Mineah Rd. off of Mt. Pleasant. At the far end of this stretch where the road disappears into a thicket I found a single eastern towhee accompanied by three fox sparrows and a couple of singing song sparrows. Based on the habitat and the mild winter, it wouldn't surprise me if this was an overwintering bird.
