Vespers are easier to identify when they’re moving and show the white outer
tail feathers. They’re our only brown sparrow with this field mark. On a
perched bird in full breeding plumage you’ll see chestnut shoulders. Your
shot shows one of these feathers coming in.

Can you all help with the identification of this sparrow? Possible
Vesper? He was hopping around my house yesterday evening.
Thank you, Kassie
