American Tree Sparrow

Spizelloides arborea

A rare vagrant that is about as likely to be found in the spring as fall, this species is not to be expected at any time, though the best periods to look are late May and mid-late September, when a majority of the records have occurred. This is a cold-hardy species that migrates early in the spring and late in the fall.
