Finally got to Funk Bottoms this morning, as the frost was burning off.  Found two LeConte's sparrows in the now-usual area beyond the dead-end ditch.  One popped up when I played the song, then it and another called a few times in response to it.  Also a couple each swamp and song sparrows.

  The LeConte's were a lifer and Ohio #315 to boot.

  You'll want knee boots or NEOS - there's 8+" of water in places on the approach.

  Cheers,
  Craig Caldwell, Westlake
