Hi all --
It appears I was able to capture a photo of the Field Sparrow today, but not a good one. I think the pale gray face and orange on crown and behind eye are evident enough to be conclusive, though. The bird was foraging with a large group of Chipping Sparrows in some sort of fallout behavior along the roadside at Lake Loop. Unfortunately, the Chipping Sparrows were moving through pretty quick, as was the Field Sparrow, so it may have already moved on. Good luck to whoever looks!
Also, thank you to Santiago Tabares who informed me about the Semipalmated and Piping Plovers he had found along the swim beach! When I got there both plovers were still there, feeding along the shore. Both nice finds by him, but especially the Piping, which (in addition to being a lifer for me), appears to be Arapahoe county's first ebird record for the species.
