Media notes
*unusual plumage; odd dilute-plumaged bird (recalling Ipswich Sparrow)
Observation details
four together seen well and audio recorded; seemed very confiding, allowing approach within 10 ft; a fifth was dilute plumaged bird looking impressively like Ipswich and blending in paler sand (photos); seemed to actually prefer paler sand area and more often flushed in that direction than joined the other individuals
