A couple from today, I thought I was taking a picture of a Song Sparrow in the trees at Haley Farm, Groton & having uploaded the file I'm not sure now. The other may be a Chipping Sparrow, taken at the Denison Pequotsepos Center. Any help appreciated.

The second one is a Chipping Sparrow. The first one is hard to tell, the face is obscured a bit. But I think it's a female Red-winged Blackbird. (Or at least, I can't come up with anything better. I don't really care much for the amount of buffy orange on the face.)
