Greetings All

Kudos to Ted for paying attention to his White-crowned Sparrows. I must admit that I'd given up. The ID is tough, requires great looks, and patience.

Good Birding

Hey, everybody. Steve's talking about an apparent pugetensis White-crowned Sparrow that I found and photo'd this past Saturday, Oct. 15, at Walden Ponds, Boulder County. Photos and basic description here:
