White-throated Sparrow Encounter

A banded White-throated Sparrow, like the one pictured, was encountered fall 2022 at BBL's Fall Migration Station in Patuxent Research Refuge, Laurel, MD. Typically encounters of banded birds are ones previously banded by the station. This white-throated sparrow, however, was found roughly 600 miles from it's original banding location near Quebec City, Quebec, Canada in 2022!
