When Wayne Petersen and Simon Perkins of the Massachusetts Audubon Society (MAS) and others arrived the next morning, a second Henslow's Sparrow appeared, delighting us with the possibility of breeding in a field much smaller than the seventy-five-plus acres thought to be optimal for Henslow's Sparrows.
