LeConte's Sparrow in Berks County ~ October 27, 2023

On the way back from Florida, we made two birding stops in Berks County, Pennsylvania. One of them entailed a brief exit into Shartlesville to see the Eurasian Collared-Doves. We saw five of them on the nearby telephone poles.

The other one was a visit to the Kempton Community Center to try and refind the LeConte's Sparrow that was found there on the 25th by Troy Herrel. It was only a minute or two before Jason spotted it flying and dropping into the higher grass patch at the top of the hill. It then perched in view, allowing me to get these nice photos of it.
