[EBB Sightings] Backyard White-throated Sparrows

I can't resist noting that we have now had our third White-throated 
Sparrow of the season, a species I once regarded as a Bay Area rarity! 
A brilliant white-striped adult showed up on our patio in November but 
has not reappeared. Then a first-winter bird made a brief appearance 
last month and is presumably one of the two that we watched this 
morning, after seeing one or the other fairly regularly for the last 
several days.

For the season, therefore: three White-throats, zero White-crowns!
