Help confirm sparrow ID


Recommended Posts

I saw these birds this past Friday at the Edwin Forsythe Wildlife refuge in Galloway, NJ. I think these would be seaside sparrows, but I'm not very familiar with those, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Second one looks like a Saltmarsh Sparrow to me.

How would you rule out Nelson’s?

nvm, range rules it out. Looking at this one again I agree that the second bird looks like a Saltmarsh. It’s got orange that I couldn’t see before.

Range rules Neslon's out.
