Several white-throated sparrows have been found at the FWG this winter, with reports of up to three. I've seen two, and Diane saw and photographed one on Jan. 4th. These birds typically head south in autumn, passing through our region in large numbers. But, occasionally, some try to overwinter. The winter of 2012/2013 also saw a white-throated sparrow hanging around at the garden. There are reports of a few others in the Ottawa region.
