Can someone ID this bird for Kris? It was at her feeder, she can fill in the rest.
 
Thanks!

I'm thinking an immature White-crowned Sparrow! When they are adults the 2 stripes on the head are black.

 happy After a week of trying to guess what these were, I'm pretty sure we have juvenile White Crowned Sparrows-lots of them!  We can have 8-10 of them at any one time at the feeder. I was leaning towards the White Crowned but only thought of them having black stripes- not thinking of juvies.  The brown stripe is so distinctive and dark brown-a very striking bird.  We'll get the adults each year for a few days as they travel through but have never seen the juveniles before so that threw me off. Thanks to all who helped and thanks to Donna for posting the pics for me.
