RE: A sparrow's expedition

I'm not very good with sparrow ID, but maybe that is a chipping sparrow? There are so many types of sparrows! Great photos and thanks for sharing them with the #featheredfriends community! ❤️

Yes I think it may be a young chipping sparrow! Thanks for the ID help.

Agree this is a chipping sparrow, nice red cap and eye stripe.

Thanks for the confirmation! ❤️

Trying to figure out the difference between a Lincoln's sparrow and a female house sparrow that would be a tricky task :-)

Who do you think this one is? wpe6zt.jpg

Yikes, I would say juvenile female house sparrow... but it seems to have a tint of yellow/green maybe it's a type of bunting?

I never have seen a house sparrow here in the woods, but that is what I thought, too. The camera picked up that color. I couldn't see it with my eyes.
I found another shot with what may be an adult. Does that give you any clues? jtn8ge.jpg

I'll have to compare beaks with a sparrow.
