Nelson’s Sharp-Tailed Sparrow
August 9, 2006 · Print This Article
The mystery bird is no longer a mystery! It is a Nelson’s Sharp-tailed Sparrow.
I based my decision on input from others, and more research into this beautiful bird. Many thanks for those who responded to my article asking for input on the identity of the bird. Special thanks to Paul Garitty over at Maine Birding for his input and the “tipping of the scales” so to speak, which led me to say with certainity, that it’s a Nelson’s StS.
Going to be making a trip to Plum Island, Massachusetts this weekend and will report back here with my report and more photos and videos.
In the mean time, here is a video of the Nelson’s Sharp-Tailed Sparrow that I took. Happy birding!
