I just got a Birdweather PUC (station # PUC-25338 if anyone else has one) and have been testing it in my E. Arlington yard. Aside from the hundreds of House Sparrow IDs (!) this morning it claims to have ID'd a Nelson's Sparrow with 95% confidence. I'm taking its IDs with a large grain of salt, but I downloaded this one, looked at the spectrogram, and compared it to East Coastal Nelson's Sparrows in Macauley. It's not *quite* but very close. Looking for other opinions, as eBird has it as only a really infrequent Fall visitor.
