OK, so after talking a bit last week about species specific threads, I decided to put my money where my idea was and start a thread. this thread is dedicated to the "Yellow Crowned Sparrow". If you have a picture of one please post it.

I will count on somone more knowledgable then myself to weed out the ones that are not YCP's...lol

Here are a couple of mine... I live in S. E Alaska

Always feel free to Cc my posts, I cant speak for others who post pictures of YCS here. I was thinking more in terms of a species ID or catalog of pictures of a certain species, not so much a CC thread. But Cc on mine is always welcome...

It is actually called a golden-crowned sparrow. If you look a few threads down you will see one that I started this morning. (actually last night)

Sorry, didnt mean to steel anyones thunder. Is there a way we can merge the threads? Should I delete this one so we only have one going to make it less confusing?

Not nearly as gorgeous as the photos above, but my husband got this big guy with my Canon today. Thanks to this thread and Google Images I have been able to identify his species!

This thread was from 2008 :oops:

But glad to hear you ID'd it. Whenever you need an ID you can just post the picture as a new thread here on the Bird section of POTN. There are many willing IDers, that way we don't have to dig up old threads.
