    A bad shot i know.....

    Attachment: sparrow.jpg

    What is this little guy? Hes got a cream colored chest, dark brown wings and back , the top oif his head is the same color but he has white streaks from his bill and under his eyes. His tail is more like a mockingbird, in that it stands up when hes on the ground.

    I live in southeast texas, close to the coast. I see all sorts of sparrow, this one however is new to me.

    Thanks and again.. he wouldnt sit still if i got any closer for another picture.

    Carolina wren -- I have a couple nesting in my bluebird box.  The heavy white eyeline says Carolina instead of house wren.
