insatiable sparrows and greater yellowlegs



C.birders,

Around dusk tonight, visited a small, private pond on Castleford Rd. in 
Watauga Co.  Had a pair of greater yellowlegs come in to give great looks 
and vocalizations.

But the real thrill was the HUGE flock of sparrows, engorging themselves in 
a muddy spot of patchy grass.  No telling what all was in there, but we got 
positive ids on vespers, fields, swamps, songs and lincolns.

Also had a purple finch and yellow-bellied sapsuckers (oh so yellow) at the 
feeder at home, also in the Castleford road area.
