I was pleasantly surprised this afternoon to find a Fox Sparrow feeding on the ground around our feeder station. I double and triple checked to make sure it wasn't a Song Sparrow, definitely a Fox Sparrow. I also had what I think was a dark morph Rough-legged SW of West Bend (though I'm not entirely sure). I'll have to look through my photos again and see if I can't suss it out.
