The 500th observation was the a Vesper Sparrow photographed today near Jackson Bottom Wetland in Washington County by @susankirkbride, which was also a county first. It was the first one found this year for the state, and only the 57th in the state ever. Susan has photographed two other individuals in the past. She ranks number 6 in the state for overall observations of the species.

Thank you everyone for participating in the first week of the new year.
