Sparrows in my backyard...

Song Sparrow
Melospiza melodia

Arguably the best known of our native sparrows, it is commonly found everywhere in North America, including my back yard.   Its vast range contributes to a great geographical variation to appearance.   In the continental northwest, they are large, dark and long-billed, quite a contrast to the familiar eastern birds I am familiar with.
