Amazingly, the Golden-crowned Sparrow that Scott Severs found at the Teller Farms trailhead on Valmont Road in November 2010 has returned to the same location for a fifth winter! We can only imagine where it goes during the summer.
This morning, the Golden-crowned Sparrow was moving around a lot with a flock of White-crowned Sparrows among weeds that are very tall this year. So, a search of the junipers and tall weeds anywhere within about 100 yards of the trailhead might be necessary to find the bird.
