I want to share with you a couple of shots taken over the holidays. Unfortunately weather didn't cooperate most of the time, but I've managed to get some keepers.
I'm not sure about the ID, but I believe it is a White-Throated Sparrow:

Both of yours are the White stripe variety. I regularly have both around here. But the White stripe is more common to me.
