Whilst in Yellowstone and the Tetons last month I came across some incredibly confiding birds at 3 separate sites. In each case it was hard to get far enough away from the birds to photograph them! I could not identify any of these. I questioned the rangers at Jenny Lake and they suggested juv White-crowned Sparrow for the individual shown from there but it is not clear if all 3 are the same species. I hope someone can shed some light on these!
