It's funny, I had always thought that "sparrow" was basically English Sparrow and that was it.
It wasn't until we started taking pictures at the feeder, and now have a camera capable of getting in close, that I discovered there were other species of sparrow in the yard. The White-Throated sparrow is completely new to me but here it is for you.
