ID Help
From what I could find in my bird guide this appears to be a Bewick's Wren but I am not sure. Taken at Pena Blanca lake in SE Arizona on 12/28/11
Thanks for the help.

Looks like a Bewick's to me, Jim. Likely Richard will weigh in and tell you for sure.

definitely a Bewick's, Jim--a plain grayish-brown wren with a long white supercilium and no other strong field marks.

Thanks for the ID, on our visit to Pena Blanca lake I spotted numerous birds that I am not sure about so more to come.
