Barbara Michelin: Ken McDermott reported this evening that
a LeConte's sparrow was found today at the Bashakill (in Sullivan
County) by John Haas. The directions are: Take Rte. 17 to Exit
113, then Rt. 209 south to Haven Rd. - like we go for our club
field trips, turn left onto Haven Rd. and go across the bridge,
look for a telephone pole on the right side of the road not
far from the bridge. From this telephone pole to the 3rd telephone
the bird was seen today. It is secretive and may take a while
to come into view.
