Swamp Sparrows

I had hoped to get out in early June to shoot some Sparrows.  Well, that simply didn't happen.  So here it is October and I finally getting out looking for sparrows.  Of course at this time of year, the big ticket is Nelson and Le Conte's Sparrow, but so far those have eluded me.  This morning ( a beautiful 85 degree day in October) I went to a new little swampy area coined Snipe Marsh.  There were sparrows there, however most of them stayed in the heavy cover.  I did have a few Swamp Sparrows come out for a nice view.  I love the pose and will be trying to get a few more like this!
