Probable Occurrence of the Harris Sparrow in Washington
Online Full Text
A correspondent, Mrs. Lucy M. Ellis, of North Yakima, Washington, under date of November 27, 1912, reports the recent occurrence of a sparrow whose characters were minutely noted and which could have been none other than an immature Harris (Zonotrichia querula). On May 14 of this year at almost identically the same spot in the city of North Yakima, Mrs. Ellis saw a Harris Sparrow in full regalia. In view of the reported occurrences of this bird in both California and Oregon, and in view of Mrs. Ellis’s careful description, there can be no reasonable doubt of Z. querula's claim to a place in the Washington avifauna.
