Rare Bird: Harris’s Sparrow
I saw some earlier in the fall (around September) and misidentified them as juvenile house sparrows. I then misidentified these ones yesterday before being corrected by a helpful birder, and when I submitted this photo to the Merlin app for an ID it was confirmed. I saw a total of three individual birds, though they were not all in the feeder at the same time (the feeder is adjacent to the tree, and they would take turns).
