is this a chipping sparrow, or am I looking at the wrong illustration in the field guide again...? Someone got an ID on this one?

It might be a good idea to look at the "key features" ( the little arows pointing at certain parts of the bird. That way even on tough groups (Like Sparrows) You can pretty much get it right. ~David
