White-crowned Sparrow


Picture
Picture

White-crowned Sparrows winter throughout the United States, breeding during the summer months in western Canada and further north. They are a large sparrow with a small bill and long tail. Mature birds have bold black and white stripes on the head, with a pink or yellow bill.  The immature birds, such as the two below, have brown markings on the head.   All images captured at Sweetwater Wetlands, February 2017.
