Great resource list, Dave. Thanks! Richard: I was killing time before a doctor appt at Arrowwood Dr this AM and there were 2 singing Eastern Towhees, one right at the right angle corner (where the Town Trail starts) and another back in the woods. I did not try to find the close one but it was right there near the road I believe in a big thicket. Song and Chipping also present over near the power line (but they are everywhere).
Not relevant for your Sparrow quest but I had also 6 warblers in the first 200’ of the trail (Chestnut-sided, Com Yellowthroat, Magnolia, Ovenbird, North Waterthrush, and Yellow). I intend to go back to that location as, like Mark pointed out recently, it’s quite a nice birdy spot and should be added to the future Basin Map list. Our recent mob of singing White-crowned Sparrows have headed north as have our winter feeder Juncos.
