Saturday Muskegon Birds

Hey Ric,

I figured I would let people know what my brother and I had in Muskegon County yesterday. At Muskegon State Park we had over 1,200 White-throated Sparrows, a couple hundred Swamp Sparrows, LeConte's Sparrow (we flushed it while walking in the Snug Harbor marsh), a couple Red-headed Woodpeckers, and we had a Blue-winged Warbler singing near the Snug Harbor parking lot. We had the White-faced Ibis at the Wastewater. In the flooded fields at the Musketawa Trail and Swanson Road we had 2 American Golden-plovers, 4 Sora, and 2 Virginia Rails.

Thanks,

Jonathan Lautenbach

1,200 WTSP?? A massive sparrow convention/migration initiative?
