365 – 4 / Chipping Sparrow

The sun finally came out today! To counter that, it was cold and windy, which means that most of the birds were hunkered down somewhere away from me. I was about to end up with a shot of a pine cone but after coming back to the house, I noticed these sparrows around the feeder. I was finally able to get one away from the feeder for a decent shot. According to my Stokes Field Guide, this is a Chipping Sparrow.
