Hi,

As a newbie I am having a hard time differentiating between sparrow species (I see little brown birds that look alike).  :?

Any suggestions/recommendations from the veterans on the board to make accurate IDs?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

cheers,
john

You will soon notice that a lot of the sparrows you see are Song Sparrows, so the first task is to learn to recognize it well, so you can tell if you see something different.
