American Chipping Sparrows of the Vermilon River
Recognizable by the rufous (rusty red) cap and the white eyebrow, these little fellows are common to the area. Chipping refers to their chipping call or trill.
Alas, another young White-crowned Sparrow. A Chipping Sparrow would have a contrasting light gray rump.
