    Cassin's Sparrow / Peucaea cassinii

    Wanderer: Sep 16-25, 1986 from Mount Desert Rock. Image here.

    Miscellany: This is Maine's only record and one of the few from the Northeast of this nomadic and poorly understood southwestern sparrow. It can appear in numbers in parts of its breeding range, usually after a wet period, and be seemingly absent the next year.
