Observation details
After a 3-day absence of not seeing any White-throated Sparrows in the yard, the darker, streakier-breasted of the tan-striped birds that wintered on our property resurfaced today. I will upload documentary photos shortly. This may constitute the latest record ever for the yard for this species, which is almost always the last of the three Zonotrichia species to leave in spring. The White-crowned Sparrows typically pull out between the 2nd and 3rd week in April, the Golden-crowned Sparrows hang in until the very end of April, and the White-throated usually leave in the first few days of May. But May 10 is very late.
