DESCRIPTION:
The bird in the image is a male House Sparrow. It exhibits a distinctive dark brown or greyish-brown cap, white or pale grey cheeks, and a prominent black bib extending from under its beak down the throat. Its back and wings are streaky brown and black, while its underparts are a dull greyish-white. The bird has a stout body and a short, conical beak, typical for a seed-eating species, consistent with its presence at a bird feeder full of sunflower seeds.
