My best parking lot find was the Eurasian Tree Sparrow. I walked through the small area in which they are found in St. Louis. Finding none I returned to the parking lot where one was waiting for me, perched on the curbing.

Got me thinking about unusual locations: * Parking lot: Gray-crowned Rosy Finches in Cloquet, MN parking lot * Yard: tie between Cattle Egret and Prairie Falcon, north of Princeton, MN * Work: Lark Sparrow * Restaurant: tie between BB Magpie & Golden Eagle * Hotel: Black-throated Magpie-Jay (business trip in Mexico many years ago, probably not unusual for residents). How about you?
