Observation details

Initially found Saturday 12/6 by Max Epstein and continuing since. Small grayish sparrow with find streaking and white eye ring, very pale undefined cheek patch and long slender tail. Close up of bird shows that though drab at a distance it has quite intricate patterns to mantle and scapulars and is really quite an attractive sparrow.
