[Maine-birds] Vesper Sparrow, Pray Street Boys and Girls Club, Gardiner

Flushed a group of sparrows behind the Pray Street Boys and Girls Club in Gardiner a half hour ago, my first Savannahs of the year, and amongst them a bird with white outer tail feathers stood out. I was able to see that it wasn't a junco, but couldn't pull the trigger on VESP with my bins. I grabbed them and sprinted back, and sure enough, there is a VESP behind the school right now with about 25 SASP. Not a rarity in Maine, but I can't remember coming across one in Gardiner before.
