Field Sparrows, Kennebunk Plains WMA, Maine

Field Sparrows are a species of conservation concern in Maine…and I certainly do not see many of them. So few that, at least on the Kennebunk Plains Wildlife Management Area where both nest, I always have to convince myself that they are not Clay-colored Sparrows, a truly rare bird in Maine. This pair stayed just at the limits of photography with my 600mm lens.

Sony Rx10iii at 600mm equivalent. 1/250th @ f4 @ ISO 100. Processed and cropped heavily in Polarr.
