Tony Leukering 1,506 Posted August 13 The first bird is, I believe, a juvenile Brewer's Sparrow: 1) a very long and seemingly narrow tail; 2) a crown with fairly strong and relatively dense streaking 3) a smallish bill 4) lacks strongly rufescent edges on the greater secondary coverts 5) lacks strongly patterned scapulars Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
