Can anyone refresh my memory of Bob Janssen's topic at tonight's Audabon monthly meeting in Roseville? Thanks.

Even with the cold and very windy conditions we got good long looks at 12 species of sparrow. By far the dominate species was Harris's Sparrow which seem to be everywhere in big numbers this year. LeConte's Sparrow was seen in several locations but the high point came when one perched in very plain site on a fence rail and was content to sit there for over four minutes. Big Stone NWR had few sparrows but more than made up for it with quite a few shorebirds around. One quite late Wilson's Phalarope gave us a very fleeting view. Several Black-bellied Plovers were found and two flocks of migrating Golden Plovers were also seen over the weekend.
