Rondeau - This elusive sparrow is extremely difficult to find and even harder to photograph.

Chris: Stunning find and photo. Would you say it’s more elusive than LeConte’s?
BrianMorin: They are in the same category but this one seemed to be just a bit tougher to me.

Near Rondeau Provincial Park - this bird was a long time coming. I have not had luck in the past and it is a migrant that is found in or near cattails so you have to walk the edges during migration. One had been reported at this location so I tried and got lucky.
