Hello everyone, I was enjoying the flurry of activity at the prairie demonstration plot between SM and ST buildings at Southwest Minnesota State University, when a HARRIS' SPARROW jumped up for a second before jumping back into the prairie plants. Having lived in Kansas for 5 years, I am very familiar with the species as a feeder bird. I was a little surprised to see him, but I guess they are regular visitors to this part of the state in winter? Thanks for any information.
Also seen were Cedar Waxwings (mostly juveniles - no wax), American Robins, Dark-eyed juncos and chickadees. Good Birding! -Jackie Augustine Asst.
