I'm pretty sure this is a type of sparrow, but what kind?

He would not come out from behind that branch, but he has a little bit of yellow near the beak, and black stripes with white in the middle on his head.

Does seeing this side help?

  1. Fabulous bird shots! WB Nuthatches are a favorite of mine! Could the sparrow be a White-throated Sparrow?

  15. I agree with Kerri above, the bird looks like a White throat Sparrow. Great Birdie shots. Well done.
    The dragonfly above is wonderful too. Great critter photos.
