August 20 / the beak

After the cooler weather, it now feels more like summer again.  I saw the oriole, and a little bird with a long, curved beak.  It looked like a sparrow until I saw the beak, and although I can't figure out what type, I think it was a wren. 

Common birds: house sparrow, robin, cardinal (pair), grackle, starling, red-breasted nuthatch, housefinch (pair), goldfinch (female), mourning dove, chickadee, downy woodpecker (male)

Summer visitors: baltimore oriole

Uncertain: wren?

Overhead: gull
