landed. Yes, Sandhill cranes this time of year are extremely rare, but two did
show up in my group for the Christmas Bird Count in the preserve on December 20.
Not sure if these two are different birds that are passing through or the same
ones and are hanging around for the winter.

- RUFOUS-CROWNED SPARROW.
Tim Avery (16 January 2016)
- [Lytle Ranch] - PURPLE FINCH (Eastern). The rather unexpected
subspecies... This eastern bird was in company with 2 CAFI and was notably
lighter than the female type CAFI. Lack of an eye-ring or arcs, stubby bill with
a "pug-face" look, blurry streaks on chest and sides, and a notably forked tail.
The light brown color was more in line with a HOFI than the dark and stark
pattern of a CAFI. 40 species:
