Is this a Dickcissel (Spiza americana)? I thought it was another house sparrow until I noticed through the camera lense that it looked a little different. I don't think I have ever seen one before now. Is it a male or a female? We had 100 degree temperature today and nothing came to feed until almost sundown. I think a hawk has been hanging around the past few days also. I noticed the ones that do come to feed are jumpy and always watching the sky.
