While sampling water at a CHP station in Williams I saw this sparrow land on a gutter, look into the downspout, and then jump in. With a lot of scrabbling and scratching noises I could hear it go down the chute until it shot out of the bottom with a loud chirp. It then went and GOT some others, who proceeded to follow it in repeatedly doing the same thing like they had just found the neatest thing since McDonalds lot crumbs. It was bizarre to say the least, and seemed to demonstrate a heck of a lot more cognizant aptitude than I'd ever given them credit for...
