[Tweeters] Fwd: Kenmore Harris’s Sparrow

[Carol Riddell]

Photos of the Harris’s Sparrow are in an eBird checklist. The link is

https://ebird.org/checklist/S152639365

If the link doesn’t work, you can use the checklist number, S152639365, to find it in eBird. Sparrow activity quieted down quite a bit by the time I left the park at 3:30. Since Harris’s Sparrows tend to stick around for a while, it might be worthwhile looking for it tomorrow morning before weekend activity picks up in the park.

> I have been watching one at the new park along the Sammamish River with the indigenous name that I can’t replication on this keyboard. It is next to the Squire’s Landing eBird public hotspot. Appears to be an immature bird transitioning to adult non breeding plumage.

> At the traffic signal on Bothell Way and 73rd NE, turn south. At the stop sign at NE 175th St, turn east. The park is on the south side of the street a couple of blocks east. 

> 

> The sparrow has been foraging on both sides of the metal walkway, pretty much staying along the first blue section of the walkway.  It’s skittish and might take some patience to see it.
