Details

Seen together with 2 James Bay Sharp-tailed Sparrows. A key diagnostic mark seen while the bird was perched in a low bush was the very heavy streaking down the sides from shoulder to flank. In flight it lacked the strong black/white markings on the back - which was so obvious on the Nelson's.
