Appears to be a House Sparrow.

I agree with Richard: female House Sparrow. In most cases, it is very helpful to tell where and when you got the bird photo in question... A part of bird identification is the range; and plumages differ across the year.

Sorry about that, taken here in Timberville VA, backyard, in June. I always have trouble telling some birds apart, they are very much alike.
Thanks for the responces..

Great action shot. It is always desirable to get your subject doing something rather than just sitting there; and you nailed it!
thanks for sharing
