On Saturday I drove out to the Lake Apopka Wildlife Drive to see a Lark Sparrow that had been found there the day before.
It was seen near the gate area, so I didn’t do the whole drive.
I just walked up and down Lust Rd until I finally saw the Lark Sparrow.
While waiting for the Lark Sparrow to show up, I also saw a Field Sparrow, which also is a bit unusual in Central Florida.
To my knowledge, neither bird was seen the next day, though people did photograph a Clay-colored Sparrow in the same general area.
