Is this a sparrow or bunting. Probably missed it in my Nat Geo Birds of North America book.

Yes it is ' )

If i'm not mistaken it is a Chipping Sparrow.

Wow, not a usual thing. Sparrow IDs and I don’t always get along.

A great image of this Tree Sparrow!

The bi-colored bill is the key identification point.

I agree with American Tree Sparrow.
