This is a nice series of the Song Sparrow race commonly seen in our area Tom, "morphna" race of the Pacific Northwest, I believe.

Clay colored sparrow (Spizella pallida) perhaps? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clay-colore...

He looks a bit fluffled up like it is cold or wet! Cool series.

Could be a juvenile white-crowned sparrow. An any case, delightful photos!
