Do not let the name sway you - they prefer reedy / grassy edges, cattails,
brushlines, etc. Back in CT during CBCs, I would get them out on the salt
marshes in the little "islands" of bushes and along the phragmites edges where
the water would be more brackish.

I just saw some American Tree Sparrows at Horicon Marsh in Wisconsin a week or
so ago, and found several in the marsh itself, jumping around the cattails like
Swamp Sparrows. For what it's worth.
