[QUOTE="OntBirder, post: 1295620, member: 55585"] What guide do you guys recommend for Sparrows? (as Sibley I guess is unreliable) I'm going to the same location on Oct. 4, when Le Conte's should be pretty common in that area (Old Airfield in Algonquin Park if you're interested), and hopefully get a chance to snap some shots of them as well as the Savannahs to compare (Though it'll be hard as they are skulky little things!) I have also seen Savannahs with minimal yellow on the lores. Though, I can't say I've seen any Savannahs with such a well patterned back, or with as much white. Look at this Le Conte's and that back pattern: [url]http://www.flickr.com/photos/donaldsducks/2626936840/[/url] Obviously this one has the bright orange face etc. I like this thread, It's providing me (and other LBJ enthusiasts) with a lot of insight on I.Ding sparrows with even tricky views like this. Thanks for all your help so far, guys! [/QUOTE]
