Observation details
Merlin sound ID picked up a Nelson's Sparrow based on a spontaneous flight call I heard and in turn recorded. I was unable to get a visual confirmation nor illicit a response using NESP sound recordings. Sparrow was detected out on the mudflat, bayside, near the patch of cattails with the dead snapping turtle. I searched along the vegetation on the bayside of the island without success. This is the second time (first time not by me) that Merlin sound ID has picked up a NESP at E. spit barrier island. First time was on the island but was not able to confirm with visual.
