[buckskin hawk]

I have been trying to add more shore birds to my list and was passing by a pond on the way to the barn. I saw in a pond what appeared to be a small bird just inches from the edge of the pond so I stopped. Okay it was that every present "stump" bird which I add to my list of rock bird, airplane bird, stick bird, leaf bird and plastic bag bird. But next to the pond on the fence sat a Savannah sparrow.

I have 11 different sparrows on my list. I am looking for another six more types of sparrows and I'll have all the sparrows for my county or maybe I should try increasing my unnatural bird list.

My local patch list includes these sparrows so far:
75. 3/05 White-throated Sparrows – Oxley Nature Center
76. 3/05 Lincoln’s Sparrows – Oxley Nature Center
77. 3/05 Field Sparrow- Residence
78. 3/05 Song Sparrow-Residence
79. 3/05 Vesper’s Sparrow – Barn
80. 4/05 White Crowned Sparrow – Shelly’s & Barn
81. 4-05 Chipping Sparrow – Oxley Nature Center
82. 4-05 Savannah Sparrow – Barn
