Song Sparrow, right?
The reason I ask is that I came across this old photo from April 2019, taken in Cochise Co, AZ. The bird was quite distant and looked to me like a Song Sparrow, of whatever local subspecies. I've seen many and, yes, they are variable, but still...
The woman (an American) next to me, also observing, said "I think that's a female Red-winged Blackbird".
"Uh, I think it's a Song Sparrow, actually. It's not really anything like a Bla- "
"Yup", she goes - using quite stereotypical language, I admit - "that's definitely a female Red-winged Blackbird". And off she went.
But - Song Sparrow, right?
