Today at 2:00 P. m. in mixed precipitation, I had a first winter Harris's Sp[arrow at my feeders. It had a tan sides of face with a dark cap, white belly with a distinct necklace. It was just a little stockier than the White-crowned Sparrows feeding around it and there were surprisingly no fights, as the White-crowned Sparrows always bully the other birds and each other. _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists (OFO) - the provincial birding organization.
