nanny, now I'm just speculating, but the nearest one, I think, is indeed a chipper, and the one behind it, I think is a female House Sparrow.

Yep, all Chipping Sparrows - the drab one in the first pic is an immature.

Thanks Resin, the drab one in the 1st pic had me fooled - but that's not too hard to do. :).

Nope...Chipping Sparrows are very common here during the summer. They are often one of the first to arrive.
