I believe this is a Savannah Sparrow. It looks a lot flashier than I am
accustomed to, but photos often look better to me than real life. It is a
widespread species with many subspecies. Almost always in places with beach
grass at the coast. The team I was on at the Yaquina CBC could not find a
Savannah Sparrow despited concerted effort. In their place at the North Jetty
we found Lincoln's Sparrows. Not expected at all. Lars
