Well-known member
While organizing my photos came across this photo taken last summer in Michigan. Thought it was Song Sparrow, but it looks different. Appreciate help with ID.

Thanks - the beak looks somewhat thicker and the head flatter - hence my confusion.
Very much appreciate your quick response.
 
Song Sparrow, but I see what you mean - the head/bill slope/proportions do look a little peculiar. Something more typical of an Ammodramus, maybe.
