I was one of the people birding Last Chance this morning. There were 6 or 7 sparrow species, 9 species of warbler, and several other fun finds. These included Common Nighthawk, the Baltimore Oriole which I missed, Northern Harrier, Cedar Waxwings, Black-headed Grosbeak, and the usual catbirds and thrashers. My arm got tired from holding my camera up so long. The birds just wouldn't stop posing.

The Harris's Sparrow is actually a Vesper Sparrow. So still the same number of sparrow species, just without the uncommon one. Thanks for those who corrected me.
