How to classify this Harris's Sparrow?


Recommended Posts

This adult Harris's Sparrow was seen yesterday in Council Bluffs, IA.  Because the cheeks or side of it's head have mostly grey and very little to no tan/light brown color, it'd be classified as a breeding adult.  I assume it's molting.  Is it simply molting from non-breeding to breeding plumage?
