With Winter Wren earlier this week and this guy today, Spring is off to a nice start!

Hm, that looks like a sparrow to me. Is that the right picture?

Oh, I see, that's not the pic of the wren - sorry, I read that wrong!

I am seeing Savannah Sparrow, but I would think with 316 lifers that one would be earlier. Maybe a Vesper's Sparrow?

Vesper Sparrow is correct! I have seen Savannah JimBob, though only a few. I had one yesterday as well in fact that showed up right where the Vesper had been and had me worried for a second that I'd made a mistake...
