[ValleyNature] add a fox sparrow for me -- was Purple Finch, Fox Sparrows, and Barred Owl - Wolfville

[James W. Wolford]

In late afternoon I too had a FOX SPARROW at my feeders, along with  
several SONG SPARROWS (at least one of which was chasing off the  
others), a JUNCO (almost none seen here this winter), several WHITE- 
THROATED SPARROWS, a male CARDINAL, and 3 MOURNING DOVES.

Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
