Birders, Rolf Koford and I visited Errington Marsh this morning in hopes to re-locate the previously reported Sprague's Pipits. We were later joined by Chuck and Jim Fuller and Danny Akers. We were successful in locating 4 Sprague's Pipits and a likely 5th near the east end of the mowed field. Also present were several Savannah Sparrows and Eastern Meadowlarks, as well as a single LeConte's Sparrow and likely flyover Rusty Blackbird that were observed by Rolf and I prior to the others' arrival. We did not observe any longspurs.
