Life Bird #703: Harris's Sparrow!
Saturday 18 October 2014 45 °F
I am very tired from a long day of children's choir, so this will be a short post. Today I woke up bright and early and found my life bird HARRIS'S SPARROW, a rare bird for the Chicago area, in the Lurie Garden of Millennium Park at around 7:30am. After finding it and taking the photos below, I walked right over to my choir performance in the Chicago Cultural Center.

Good birding,
