Re: [Maine-birds] Song Sparrows - Winterport

John;

Interestingly, I found two Song Sparrows yesterday down around Fort Popham, where I haven't been seeing them all winter.  Maybe there's something to this early movement. Be interesting to hear whether others had FOY birds recently.  And you're right about playing around with eBird maps. 

(None at our feeders in West Bath, however.  But we're not in a particularly  good sparrow location.)

After having one Song Sparrow at our feeders most days this winter, this morning there were three.  Perhaps a sign of early spring migrants?  I checked on eBird's "Explore Data" and saw that there is indeed an uptick in abundance, frequency, etc... in Maine starting around March 1st.  I thought that was rather neat.  There are a number of fun, informative tools on eBird.

Good Birding,
John
