Linda Burns, Jim Eller and I found a LeConte's Sparrow on the Southside of Veterans Park this morning. It was with a group of Song Sparrows just east of the BandShell on the edge of Legion Lake and in the short grass by a park bench. This is just west of the island Black-crown Night-herons are often found through the summer. The bird was often seen on the path and in the short grass field.
Also in the park were White-throated, Fox, Song and Savannah Sparrows, Hermit Thrush and a small flock of Yellow-rumped Warblers among other migrants. Scott B.
