I always thought of Chipping Sparrow as a common species. Perhaps I just
wasn't paying attention, and always saw some without effort. Not this year.
I haven't seen one yet. I see in the just-released BBA that they are "rare"
in Western NS but I believe there is lots of good habitat in Kings Co.

A total of seven birds have been reported in Kings Co. on eBird since May
15th:

Many "good" species are far more common than this.
