Sparrow in Tall Grass

Elk River, Maryland

Making rounds amoung tall cane grass along River Road; a brackish water area. Would love to commit to an identification,
but since I don't hear most sparrows, I'm usually at-a-loss for proper identification. Sparrows are, however, one of my favorite subjects.
Best viewed in 'original' size.

Love this little guy at home in the seeding grass.

Super! My bird book shows it to be a Song Sparrow. Most sparrows I see are Chipping Sparrows.
