[cobirds] Field sparrow — Cherry Creek SP, Arapahoe

Yesterday I found a Field Sparrow at the plum bush near the pelican point parking area. It was moving fast yesterday and I lost track of it pretty quickly. 

This morning I found it in the exact same spot. And it seemed more content to be hanging out there. For those not familiar with the area: Right at the parking lot for pelican point there is an un-missable large plum bush right next to the parking lot and vault toilets. When I saw it it was at the edge of the plum bush but made its way deeper in as I observed it. 

I know this seems like just another Field Sparrow in the metro area this. But it's interesting to consider (on eBird) there are only two records prior to 2020 of this species in the county. And so far there have been at least 4 or 5 individuals just this fall!
