Is this Indian Summer?

Beautiful morning at Nahanton Park ... I found this bright Field Sparrow at the upper garden, 
and this Painted Lady in the lower garden.














Also, at the foot of the lower garden, there was this bird. Quiz time! What is it?

  1. It's a little dark, but is it a savannah?

  2. Is it a young Lincoln? It looks too fat and fluffy though. I'm stumped.

  3. OK, the answer! This is a young female Dickcissel. I haven't found one at Nahanton Park since 2006, so it was exciting to see!
