We did get good looks at the Lark Sparrow under a feeder past Monhegan Brewery this morning. Life bird for me and Sally. A Lincoln Sparrow at the feeders across from the Trailing Yew was another highlight for us.

--Last morning of my Monhegan weekend. Felt like many birds left the island last night, but there were still warblers to be found all over, including Magnolia, Bay-breasted, and Blackburnian for some color.Picked up my first Winter Wren of the weekend.Heard a CLAY-COLORED SPARROW singing at the edge of the Meadow (where one was seen yesterday). I believe the LARK SPARROW was seen this morning in the same place (below Matt and Mary Webber's feeder).Two male Scarlet Tanagers were reported, as well as the first non-robin thrush of the weekend: Veery, in the woods on the way to Pebble Beach (thanks, Jess, Lisa, Anne, and Robin!)BLUE-GRAY GNATCATCHER was in the apple trees across from Elva's PO right before I left the island.Also, Chris Borg told me he had 2-3 White-winged Crossbills, including a singing male, in the woods on the way to Black Head yesterday, I believe. First crossbills I can recall being seen/heard out there for a few years.And a young deer mouse ran over my foot.That's all from me. Hope those lucky enough to still be out on the island will share what they're seeing!Kristen--Kristen Lindquist
