I was thinking White-throated, but I'm not at all confident. I can't see any yellow on its head.

CLOSED: What kind of Sparrow is this.
a cute one! ;)
I think it's a tan form White-throated sparrow. Let's see what the experts say.
Hack...there is some yellow on the front of the head in the first photo. I think this is a Savannah Sparrow..very similar to the WT but this bird has streaking on the chest area and the wing markings are also different.
PS...I'm not an expert!!

I looked in my book and, by George, I think you're right.

You can see the yellow around the beak in the first photo. I get a lot of the tan form here.
Thanks, Mrs_Ed, I looked in both of my Ga Bird books and they don't show a Savannah Sparrow. I wonder if it can't be a Savannah because I maybe am not in its zone of habitation?

Ditto to White-throated Sparrow
