I received this second hand report that I thought I should share with the list.
A Clay-colored Sparrow was observed in Prospect Park yesterday near the Maryland Monument and Wellhouse Drive. Klemens Gasser posted some photos on his Flickr page here: https://m.flickr.com/#/photos/gasserberlin/15836779838/ It's getting a bit late in the year for this species, so it would be a very nice addition to the Brooklyn CBC if it stays until Saturday. Here's more details from Klemens email to me: "It was at Maryland monument where the fenced in bushy area is next to the street and later around the cut down tree on peninsula Meadow. With a first winter CHSP, other CHSPs and DEJU."
