Sparrow nest

Reveler Conservation Area

Not sure if this is a song sparrow nest or not. It was placed very low in the tree, about 1 foot above ground, and is made almost entirely of grasses, both of which suggest song sparrow. But it is a much deeper cup than I've seen in other such nests. Anyway, a remarkable little construction, as all nests are.
