I'm assuming this is a sparrow, but the yellow throat has me puzzled. It was taken on 12/5/2018 at Brookgreen Gardens, Murrells Inlet, SC. Thanks, Bob

Thanks for the help. I've got many shots of one, but for some reason this one fooled me. I thought it looked more like a sparrow. It was sitting in the grass opening and closing her eyes like it was sleepy or ill.
Regards, Bob
