Having just returned from southwest Utah this message is a little late. We looked for the Lawrence's Goldfinch at Chekshani Cliffs this weekend (twice), unsuccessfully. However, on Saturday 10/5 we did observe the immature Golden-crowned Sparrow in this same area. Kathy also saw the Green-tailed Towhee.

While we were birding there a local resident stopped and asked what we were doing and mentioned that they had seen at least three or four groups in the past few days there. Did anyone else other than Rick Fridell see this bird?
