Saltmarsh Sparrow

Ammospiza caudacuta

Description:

I saw one of these hopping around in the grass, barely visible until this one hopped up on this grass clump to survey the area. I then saw another on the other side of the marsh. Considered a rare sight and it's also a lifer for me!

Habitat:

Large salt marsh with a variety of birds, especially Willets, Snowy Egrets, and gulls. See https://www.visitscarboroughmaine.com/sc...
