White-crowned Sparrow (Zonotrichia leucphrys): A common bird in North America. Large for a sparrow, with distinct white on the head as adults. The white "eyebrow" has black stripes above and below. Juveniles are more gray/brown.
I think I saw a few White-cowned Sparrows on Lone Mountain. I realized that I may be mixing up the Black-capped Chickadee with White-crowned Sparrows. I'll have to make sure to pay attention to the color on the top of the head and the wing feathers colors.
