After going to our private campsite down by the farm field and beside the
creek I saw and heard these birds:

A pair of White Breasted Nuthatches, a Male Downy Woodpecker, a pair of
Cardinals, multiple Red Winged Blackbirds, Common Grackles and European
Starlings.

Then I started hearing a beautiful song that was familiar but couldn't
place it...I then saw a Song Sparrow in the tall grasses by the creek .
That Song Sparrow was just chattering but I continued to hear the beautiful
singing . I then spotted another verified Song Sparrow singing at the top
of a tree, he wasn't the only one though. In total there were 3 males
singing and what I believe were 2 females seen on the banks in the tall
grasses kicking and picking through the grass.

Got a awesome video of these beautiful singers. They made my day!!!!

(I've been sad for our backyard Song Sparrow bc he hasn't had a mate or
others of his kind but he does just further back behind our house!)

I love birding!
