sbutk 14 Posted November 21 Hi. Shot this unfamiliar bird today in the parking lot of a hawkwatch in northern NJ. I found what seems to be a really close match with my Audubon app for Android, but the bird’s range seems to be off. Could this be a Clay-colored Sparrow? Thanks.

sbutk 14 Posted November 21 (edited) Just a little surprised that the app would be off. They have the range being essentially a narrowing vertical band down the middle of North America. They are shown as "Uncommon" in southern Ontario (Niagara Falls region), though, so I suppose maybe this could be even more of a "stray", haha. Remains to be seen whether anyone else chimes in, though. Thanks for your swift response, though. I do believe you've lowered my record to having a response within just 5 minutes of posting! EDIT: I see now, you were agreeing with Snow Bunting. Thanks for your second! Edited November 21 by sbutk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, that does look to be a perfect match, for both plumage and range. And the Life List creeps up another tick tonight... 😁 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
