White-throated Sparrow

White-throated Sparrows don't breed at our location, but they do arrive in the fall and stay for a time. They are very beautiful sparrows that quickly dash into the brush. Notice the yellow lores between the eye and bill.

Besides singing during the mating season, White-corwned Sparrows sing during the winter. It's been said that White-throated Sparrows often sing at night when the moon is full.
