It seems that this is the right time to find both resident and migrant sparrows in west central Minnesota. I spent a fun day pre-birding for the 3 day sparrow workshop next weekend.
All the "usual suspects" were around in good numbers, but the most interesting were LeConte's Sparrows. In one spot I had 12 LeConte's in sight at one time. Three of them were 12-15 feet from me. In the next 100' I found at least a dozen more!!!!!! Great fun.
