Observation details
Initially thought this was a Nelson's Sparrow, but after careful study and review, I now think this is a Saltmarsh Sparrow. This bird is more heavily streaked than the typical Nelson's sparrow. Both the Nelson's and the Saltmarsh sparrows have similar calls and the Merlin App may not distinguish between the calls.
