I need some help identifying a "sparrow".
I ruled-out a strangely marked Chipping Sparrow because of it's larger size, it's about the same size as the White-throated and White-crowned Sparrows that have recently come south.
After looking at my Peterson's "Eastern Birds", my best guess seems to be an (immature and wayward ?) Golden-crowned Sparrow.
I've posted some pictures at:

I'd appreciate any suggestions from more experienced "birders".
Thanks, in advance.
Bob
