White front streaked with brown
look closer, a grey-streaked face
Sings multi-part songs
If you see a brownish and white small bird singing its heart out, its mostly likely going to be a song sparrow. Their multi-part songs have a variety of regional differences across the U.S. but can usually be picked out by their complexity. When seen, keep an eye out for a face streaked with grey and a small brown patch in the middle of the bird’s chest.
