Bill looks like a Grassquit to me, which is also the far more common species. Though it looks like you photographed it in or near Bamboo perhaps. I don't know Blue Seedeater terribly well but would expect a more saturated blue and a heavier bill. Typically Blue Seedeater is found in seeding bamboo. It is vocally very distinct and easily told with a better angle of photo.
