The B.B.Atlas season is ending, but don't give up just yet. This evening around 6pm, with temps. in the low 90's, I had some time in Chillicothe so I checked the Hopeton Site just North of town. I was there an hour, and confirmed Song Sparrow(CF). But the best find was at least 2 different Sedge Wrens on territory there...I check this area a lot..and they have moved in within last two weeks. I remember Jim Fry telling me he has found them late in summer like this before in past years. 

Also, a couple Henslow's Sparrows were in same area singing their insect like song.. the Henslow's have moved in the last couple of weeks also. Maybe re-checking some overgrown fields is in order as the Atlas ends this year?
