With great appreciation to the kind homeowners who have allowed birders access to view this bird, and to Rich Guthrie for making the arrangements, Denise and I saw the Harris's Sparrow with many other birders this morning, several times between 10 AM and 11:15 AM.
We, along with others, were able to get some distant photos of this great bird, which (hopefully) can be seen via my ebird report at the link below. http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S25824943 The photos are heavily cropped and edited but do provide documentation. Thanks again, Scott Stoner and Denise Hackert-Stoner, Loudonville NY for further updates on this bird, please see HMBirds, a service of the Hudson-Mohawk Bird Club -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
