Zonotrichia leucophrys
One of the most common of the sparrows. Usually in flocks and sometimes with Golden-crowned Sparrows. Most identified by the two dark stripes on the white crown. Dark eye stripe that reaches to the back of the head. None to faint streaks on chest, but contrasty streaks on back.
Found just about anywhere. Mostly on edges of trails and in fields.

very nice :)
Thank you. Wish I could afford a longer lens. The one I have is 300mm but it's to narrow to let enough light for sharp shots.
Yes Jemma. They are rare to find here.
Thank you Maria. We have so many they make it easy.
this is the yellow billed variety. Did you know there is a pink billed variety?
Love the first photo!
