[cobirds] Lincoln's Sparrow - SW Denver

We had a surprise, and very late, LINCOLN’S SPARROW show up in our yard today (Athmar Park Neighborhood, SW Denver, Denver Co. / 25 Nov.’21).  This guy or gal has an injured right eye, though otherwise seems healthy.  In addition to our new visitor, the adult WHITE-THROATED SPARROW which showed up a couple of weeks ago is still around and generally pretty cooperative.  If you have any interest in stopping by to try for either of these sparrows, please let me know separately.

 

Happy Thanksgiving,

Doug
