Hi All,

morning from 9:45-10:30 am.

> Mark Dedea and I found a Nelson's Sharp-tailed Sparrow this morning
> at Southlands Horse Farm, just south of Rhinebeck, Duchess Co. We had
> no camera so we called Gene McGarry who came all the way out to get
> photos of the bird. I've posted one on my Flickr site.

> Southlands is located just south of Rhinebeck on Rt. 9. It is on the
> west side of Rt.9. It is open to the public. The bird seems to be
> pretty faithful to the drainage ditch that runs perpendicular to the
> main farm road that is behind the barn. You can find the drainage
> ditch by locating the line of cattails that grow along the ditch. We
> also found 4 Vesper Sparrows, well over 30 Pipits, and a few Fox
> Sparrows.
> Good luck if you go looking!
