Among the newly planted begonias around the bird bath in the northeast corner lurks a Lincoln Sparrow. Looks suspiciously like the light grey specimen spotted a couple of weeks back during a Gabriel walk. Also present was a full breeding plumage Swamp Sparrow. To round it off a remaining Common White-throated Sparrow was in the begonia patch behind the southeast patio.
