10 June 2006 Antrim Co., MI
1700 Hrs. While driving south on C65 just north of M-88 I saw a pair of Vesper Sparrows courting on a fence along the road. The pair were hopping, flapping and flying up and down, almost in mock battle. I could see the white outer tail feathers and the chestnut shoulder patches.
