Hi again,
I just thought of an interesting CHSP observation to share from this week from Clear Spring Ranch.
Early in August I was surprised that about 95% of the Chipping Sparrows I was catching were adults, or at least After Hatch Year birds, with many females with recovering brood patches. This continued for a couple weeks, then things were about 50-50 in mid-August.
Now I am seeing about 95% juvenile birds, with only about 10 adults this week, with 350-400 juvenile birds.
FYI.
