I joined ASCA for a field trip to the local park today. I believe there were 21 birders in attendance. The highlight for me was the Henslow’s Sparrow. I saw it as well as Donna H and a third birder who I don’t know but I’m not sure if anyone else did. It all happened too fast for the camera but the olive colored head was distinctive.
