I just saw a basic-plumage CLAY-COLORED SPARROW in the CRC field near Monkey Run north, in the goldenrod north of the CRC buildings and south of Hanshaw Road (much closer to the buildings). It was with a small flock of Song Sparrows, but they all dispersed quickly into the underbrush and I have been unable to relocate the Clay-colored.
Also, a Lincoln's Sparrow at the preserve on Lower Creek Road at Pinckney Road. No Connecticuts yet, though.
