The Clay-Colored sparrow was singing vigorously when we arrived on 6/30 at
about 10:15am. Using Paul's directions below, we drove directly to the spot
and found the CCSP immediately.

Hi Paul,

I arrived this morning at about 11:00AM. The Clay-colored Sparrow was
easily seen from the road, perched atop the scotch broom, and singing like
crazy. By about 11:15, the bird was silent and not to be seen. Thanks for

sharing this good bird and for directions to the site.
