Grasshopper
Sparrows were found in the summers of 2005 and 2006 at Greig Farm
in Red Hook. Prior to these sightings, there had been only eight
reports of Grasshopper Sparrows since 1990. The July 2006 field
trip to Grieg Farm found a young bird, the first breeding evidence
for Grasshopper Sparrow found in the county since 1982.
The
photo below was taken by Steve Golladay at Greig Farm in July
2006.
