Can someone please ID this bird for me. Sadly, it flew into my window this afternoon and died on impact. I live in Ottawa, Ontario.

It is a Golden-crowned Sparrow - I think. Have only seen pictures of them.
 
White-throated Sparrow. Golden-crowned Sparrow doesn't occur in the east.
Dang, didn’t think of the range (rookie mistake) reminds me of why I don’t normally post on the ID forum. I am usually wrong. :(
