Shot this sparrow this morning (3-30-10) not sure if it is a fox sparrow or a song sparrow, or maybe something else. ID will be appreciated.

Canon T1i, 1/640 @ F-13, ISO 400
150-500 Sigma @ 500mm. monopod used.

John,

This is a Fox Sparrow though I am not familiar enough with the species to give you the subspecies though there are a bunch.
