    I'm embarrassed that I can't ID this bird in my Sibley
    guide.  I am more of a raptor and wader fan than
    anything else, so I'm at a loss with these small birds
    sometimes. 
    
    Anyway, at Lafayette Reservoir on Sunday, I found a
    pair of these little birds actively bringing nesting
    material into their manmade nesting box.  They were
    using one of the boxes that's about 25% of the way
    around the trail going counterclockwise; it's off to
    the left and down a slope traveling in that direction.
      They were very busy and quite entertaining.  The
    pictures are here:

    Thanks for the help,
