Sparrows!

This evening at the track after I had finished running I got my bins and book out of the car. I went birding around the trail. It was cloudy and cool outside. I saw a small sparrow, and raised my binoculars to it. It was a Chipping Sparrow, my first for NM. It was close to me, so I watched him (her?) for awhile. Then, after a few minutes a Lincoln's Sparrow flew out and scared the Chipper off. And a second one appreared. I followed them around for awhile. Then turned back on the trail. I also saw a Hairy Woodpecker, WB, and PY Nuthatches.
