Here's a couple terrible pictures from a few years ago. I think the little guy on the right is a junco of some sort, maybe, but the fellow with the yellow face was a surprise, I had no recollection of seeing that picture before.

How sure are we on the Harris's Sparrow? The face looks yellow to my eyes, but that could be an artifact of lighting and processing to brighten the image and up the contrast. Maybe?

Looks OK for Harris's to me; pink bill and plumage pattern match, even if the yellow's a bit off. Also MO is the right area for them. Try posting the unedited original if you still have it?

That would involve a deep delve into a stack of external hard drives. With two people in agreement and no real alternatives even suggested, I'll go with y'all's ID of a Harris's Sparrow. Thanks, folks.
