Photo by BarrytheBirder

This sparrow has a strongly outlined white throat, a mostly dark bill, and dark crown stripes and eye line.   There is a broad eyebrow that is yellow in front of the eye.   It is common in woodland undergrowth, gardens and brush.  Unlike the upright posture of the of the White-crowned Sparrow, the White-throated Sparrow has a short-necked, hunched posture.
