I went to the same area around the Purgatory Creek wetland this afternoon and did not locate the Nelson's Sharp-tailed Sparrow visually after a 30 minute search. I did hear his song 1 time, but that was it. The song came from a swampier area today than yesterday, so I was unable to get anywhere near him. It was also further west from where the creek exits the wetland. I noticed yesterday that he would only get startled if you were very close to him. Otherwise, he didn't move around a whole lot. I was slightly off in the exact location yesterday. I typed southeast, but after looking at a map, the creek exits due south. I always mistakenly assumed southeast for some reason. The sparrow was on the west bank of the creek, not the east.
