The beautiful, exciting and wonderful Harris' Sparrow remains reliable at
the Amish farmhouse at 3395 Township Road 406.  It is always with a large  group
of White-crowned sparrows.  Today it was not at the feeders but  rather along
the creek opposite the house.  The homeowners are delightful  people who are
happy to have you come inside if you wish, and they are  maintaining a list of
visitors for you to sign.

The location has been reported as north of Millersburg.  This is not  so - it
is dead east of Millersburg.  On page 51 of Delorme, this tiny  unpaved road
is just below the words Walnut Creek.  I found wonderful  directions using
expedia.com.  If you are coming from the Cleveland area,  be sure to travel via
Route 94 as it passes through fabulously lovely farm  country with big hills
where you go up looking at sky and more sky, then crest  the hill for an
expansive vista full of corn stalk bunches.  Even without  the bird, the drive would
have made it a great and memorable day.  With the  bird, it was just over the
top!
