Unlike the chipping sparrows that were most abundant through the summer, I've begun to notice a few new sparrows with the cold snap in recent weeks.
The bit of yellow and other markings on this sparrow first had me thinking that it is a Savannah sparrow. With further research and closer examination, I believe it's a white-throated sparrow. Confirmation or alternate ID is appreciated.

Nice shot. We get a few of these here in the winter, but they're usually skulking around near the ground. This is the tan striped morph.
