On Sunday the 20th we found 1 Nelson's Sharp-tailed Sparrow on the Wake Robin Trail at Mentor Marsh.  Overall sparrow numbers there were down dramatically from a week ago - though Song Sparrows were more abundant.

A female Purple Finch in our South Euclid yard on the 20th was a new addition to our yard list.
