[nysbirds-l] Vesper Sparrows @ Uplands Farm, Cold Spring Harbor (Suffolk)
To supplement Ken and Sue Fuestel's 10/18 Caumsett report, there are currently 3 Vesper Sparrows at Uplands Farm Sanctuary (only about 4 linear miles from Caumsett S.P.). The small group was first seen feeding along the west side of the main driveway beside a small dirt road, near the blue tractor. Vehicle traffic eventually forced the group to disperse but they are still lingering around, perching on the post and rail fence, trees and shrubs on either side of the main drive. A good bet if you're nearby and looking to view some Vespers. This was the most interesting species seen but there were plenty of other good birds to keep one busy.
