sbruenjes Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I took this picture back in the Fall of 2013 in Bergen County, NJ. At the time, the person who got me into bird photography identified this bird as a fox sparrow, but now I think I see more song sparrow. Unfortunately, most of the beak is blocked... Any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seanbirds Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Yes. They are bigger and chunkier than Song Sparrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
