Hello Fellow Birders,

This little thing has been visiting my little townhouse yard near Holly and Arapahoe in west Centennial for about a week now.  I finally got a good-enough (I hope) picture of it to ask for identification help.  I think it's a Lincoln's Sparrow.  Photo attached.

Keep Smilin',

Good enough photos to do this analysis.  Looks good for a Lincoln's.  Has fine streaking on the chest.  A bit of a yellow wash in the malar stripe area and spilling a bit onto the chest.  Overall gray background on the head with medium brown head and eye stripes.
