Dickcissel.

While wandering in a meadow full of ticks we saw numerous dickcissels.

None were in breeding plumage but we still got to see them.

Spiza americana
Nearly all Dickcissels winter far south of their breeding range, but each year small numbers can be found scattered within the breeding range throughout the winter. Individual Dickcissels frequently turn up far from the normal range, often joining in with House Sparrow flocks.
