Holyoke has Savannah Sparrows, too

After wondering on Sunday whether Holyoke had habitat suitable for Savannah Sparrows, I was able to answer my own question pretty quickly.

I found about 6 Savannahs in Pulaski Park yesterday, near the canal:

There was also a Chipping Sparrow hanging around:

It’s shaping up to be a very interesting spring here in the city.
