A Vesper Sparrow was spotted at DeKorte Park yesterday (Sunday, April 21), providing a real treat for birdwatchers. The species is very rarely seen in the Meadowlands, especially in the spring. Kerri Wallace, one of several people to see the sparrow, submitted these photos of our new avian friend at the Kingsland Overlook. Thanks Kerri!

It’s hard to pick a favorite among these photos that Joe Koscielny sent us from last week’s Beregen County Audubon Society Nature Walk at Harrier Meadow in North Arlington. They are all wonderful pictures capturing our avian friends in all their illustrative wonder.
