Sorry to keep posting ID help again,but this is my first year birding and I'm trying to learn. Is this bird a "White-throated Sparrow"? I do have a couple bird books,but when thumbing through them some of the birds look a-like and then there are females ,juveniles etc. I know this shot isn't very good and is a heck of a crop. I just want to know what kind of bird this is. Thanks in advance.
