The yellow eyestripe, rufous wing, and barely visible edge of a dark chest patch make it look more like a Dickcissel in this view. But you were there and I wasn't.

Thanks Tom, you may be right, I'm not an expert on birds.
I'll do some research on this one. David

Hi Tom, you're right, it's a Dickcissel, I'll change the caption. Thanks again.
