Among the multitude of sparrows (Sunday, 5pm) in the grassy area south of Dike 14 there was an aberrant white crowned sparrow. It had a normal crown but, otherwise, was white with a light orange tinge in a few places (reminiscent of winter plumaged snow buntings). It was at the far east end of this area. Otherwise I saw white crowned (the most numerous), white throated, Savannah, field, Lincoln's (1), chipping (2), song sparrows and junco. There were few birds other than the aforementioned sparrows.
