Hi everyone,

Since everyone loves an ID quiz, I thought I'd toss out a question.  I
recently took a trip to El Paso, Texas and did some birding before my work
activities started.  I photographed the sparrow shown on the web page linked
below, but I am having trouble sorting out which type of sparrow (or
something else) it is.

Since this is OT, please reply with any ID suggestions to me privately at


The photos are here:  http://monroe.20m.com/huecosparrow.htm .

Thanks in advance,
