[cobirds] Swamp Sparrow - Rocky Mtn Arsenal NWR - Adams County

Southwest of Lake Ladora; not quite as far south as E 64th/Wildlife Drive, but just north of there.  If you take the Ladora Loop trail north of the road (opposite the woodland trail), you follow it around to where it is going east and then turns north.  At that corner is some brush and mullein; the bird was hanging out with some other sparrow species there.  Others included White-crowned Sparrow, American Tree Sparrow, Song and Vesper Sparrows.

Ducks included Canvasback, Redhead, Bufflehead, Ring-necked, Hooded Mergansers, etc.  I didn't see any goldeneyes or scaup, but I didn't visit any of the other bodies of water in the refuge.
