- Comments: "Found by Nick earlier. Ammospiza with a buffy orange face contrasting with a white throat, finely streaked chest has just a hint of a brown wash, pale crown. Not a particularly colorful individual, suggesting a juvenile. Lifer for both of us and photos tba."

Beauty is the only thing that time cannot harm. Philosophies fall away like sand, creeds follow one another, but what is beautiful is a joy for all seasons, a possession for all eternity.
