Well, this is going to complicate my birding - even more. I was already
struggling with hovering vs. kiting.

Hi all,
Yesterday, Trudy Battaly, Drew Panko, Nick Sly, Bobby Kurtz, Mary Beth
Billerman and I had the continuing Lark Sparrow at the Fireman's Park at
Point Lookout in Nassau County. It was foraging along the grass near the
playground.
Good birding,
