    I went to look for the YB Sapsucker at Newhall Park in Concord yesterday
    about 5:30 pm. I did not see it, but I did see a White-throated Sparrow. I
    found it in the bushes that would be behind you near the maintenance
    building if you are looking at the tree with the excavation. This was a
    "white-striped" phased bird.
