Observation details
Sparrow with distinctive orange eyebrow, face, and on breast and flanks, with streaking in both places, and a very well-defined white belly. At least one bird was markedly brighter orange, suggesting an and brighter overall, suggesting a possible Interior. At least one bird was much more drab, suggesting a possible Atlantic. Of course it was impossible to definitively determine subspecies beyond some speculation, but it feels like a noteworthy observation to include. Gray nape, cheeks and crown stripe. Two rows of white stippling on the back, below the nape. Birds seen low in the marsh, making short flights, and perching on the sedges and skulking in the vegetation.
