Sparrow

[Bruce Miller]

I shot this guys this morning at a central Ohio Wetland area. I can't decide if it is a Grasshopper or a Swamp Sparrow. I am not good with these little brown birds.

It is late for a Grasshopper, but not out of the question. It is peak migration for Swamp. The bird was in the cattails surrounded by a small grassland area.





Thanks for looking,
Bruce

I got confirmation that this is a Swamp. That really is what I thought, but I keep doubting myself.

Love the image, and I agree with Swamp Sparrow. Excellent pose with great detail of legs and feet.
