SONG SPARROW (Melospiza melodia)
[Zonotrichia melodia] [Mainland and Endemic]


1897 Santa Cruz Island: “With much interest I read Mr. Jos. Mailliard's article on the birds of Santa Cruz Island in the May-June number of the Bulletin, and finding his experience different from mine in some particulars, I submit a few notes taken principally on the west end of the island in May, 1897. I saw and collected in two or three different canons near the ocean specimens of the song sparrow (M. f. graminea). F...” Beck, R.H. Additional Notes on the Birds of Santa Cruz Island, Cal., 1899


1898 Santa Cruz Island: “...Song Sparrows, recently identified as Melospiza faciata gramminea, were frequently heard around the vegetable garden at Iaaplaya (Main Ranch) and often seen. This garden was surrounded by a very thick trimmed hedge of cypress which was the abiding place of these birds. A singular feature in connection with this sparrow was the fact that although shot as soon as they appeared in this garden, there would be two or three more in a day or so, and yet none were found anywhere else in the vicinity or on the whole island, except on a small creek some seven or eight miles from Laplaya, where one or two were seen...”
