[EBB Sightings] Nelson's Sharp-tailed Sparrow

The Nelson's Sharp-tailed Sparrow reported on Sunday to the Northern 
California Rare Bird Alert was seen again today by many people at 12:30 this 
afternoon at Arrowhead Marsh.  Arrowhead Marsh is part of Martin Luther King 
Jr. Regional Shoreline Park and is near the Oakland Airport.  Enter the park 
on Swan Way off Doolittle Drive (Hwy 61).  Drive into the park to the very 
last parking lot.  Go to the left on  the paved path to the little wooden 
pier.  There is a triangular island just west of the pier and the sparrow is 
being seen at the point of the island that is closest to the pier at high 
tide.  This is the same location as last winter's sightings.
