Probably white-throated as you can sort of see the white throat and black lines. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with very worn sparrows, it's good to be cautious. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could be right, but if you look closer you can see off set white with thin black lines in it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proportions, shape also look right. What is confusing me is the rufous edges. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colton V Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 WTSPs don’t breed in Oregon and I think it’s a bit early for them to show up. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to have a yellow wash, so I would guess juvenile/immature. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you zoom in you can see the light fleshy colored gape. It’s definitely a juv., not a worn adult. Also by the fact that it is so plainly/amorphously marked. Adults never appear this way, even when molting. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
