Spizella passerina

Description:

nonbreeding adult. light pink bill, plain gray breast

Notes:

Although most range maps don't show chipping sparrows wintering in Tennessee, it does happen. See these websites: http://www.freelists.org/post/tn-bird/Ch... This one says "rarely spend the winter in the state" http://www.tnwatchablewildlife.org/detai... UPDATE: There's a pair of them! Maybe they'll stay and nest here!
