This sparrow was on the beach dunes in Chicago. Can anyone help with the ID?

Richard,
I was stumped by this guy at first but after a quick glance at a field guide I am going to say an immature White-crowned Sparrow. Clean breast, dark eye line with white above and a dark crown, plus the white wing bars are the fieldmarks I used.
