I ventured to Sandpiper Beach after the Sprague's Pipit trek at Errington Marsh. Jim and Chuck Fuller were just getting ready to leave and had the Spotted Towhee among several other sparrow species at the brush pile. I was only able to hang around for about another 20 minutes, but did not observe the Towhee. I think Lincoln's Sparrows were the most numerous sparrow I saw in the relatively quiet brush pile, perhaps 18 individuals. Danny Akers Ankeny [email protected]
