[Maine-birds] ID quiz

Found these guys in a high-bush blueberry at Green Point Dresden, and one of the parents sneaking away trying not to be too obvious (so I know what species it is).

 

So, for your mid-summer breeding bird amusement… what is the species?  For scale those are unripe blueberries in the foreground.  You can see there is still one unhatched egg in there too.

 

PS if you saw this on Facebook in the MaineBirds group don’t give it away…
