Sorting out a few pics...wondered if anyone can guess what it is?
Better shots to come, if necessary.

Hi Trevor
Looks like White-crowned sparrow, but can't quite equate those bright ginger edges to the secondaries.
Plain underparts, head etc seem to point to WCS though

Not white-crowned, Sean, but certainly a sparrow.

Well done, Clay-colored it is.
I have a different one, which may be easier:-

Also American? It looks like a Greenfinch at first glance.
