Early on in the afternoon of Tuesday [11/19], as if by magic, both White-throated and White-crowned Sparrows appeared in our wonderful winter bird feeding area here in south central Huron County (sw of Greenwich). White-throateds appear off/on as regulars during winter feeding. However(and for the past 30 years), it has been common for a flock of 6 or 8 White-crowneds to spend the entire winter with us..and what a treat that has been!
