    Need a little help with this one. This time of year makes it tricky. I think it it's a swamp sparrow. It's was in a low area, usually wet in the spring, very shrubby. Thanks for the help.

    Bryan,

    You've got it right. The "fat" looks, jizz if you like it better, tell alone it is not Chipping.
    Also, for example, you need two white/pale wingbars for chipping.

    Very nice photo BTW.
