Harris’s Sparrow, Eh?
10,000 Birds
FEBRUARY 8, 2013
This big, chunky sparrow is one of Canada’s few endemic breeders (Wikipedia says the only one, but I trust Cornell more.) Exotic and mysterious — its nest wasn’t documented for science until the 1930s — but still, a sparrow. Of Least Concern, but worth stirring up a hotline or list serv over.
