Description: The Chipping Sparrow is common throughout much of the United States and Canada. Measuring about 5 inches in length, the Chipping Sparrow has a bright rufous cap, white stripe above the eye, and black stripe through the eye. Chipping Sparrows are grayish-white underneath, and brown with black streaks above.

Habitat/Range/Diet: Chipping Sparrows can be found in open woodlands, scattered evergreen groves, evergreen forests, and yards and gardens throughout the United States and Canada. While Chipping Sparrows are usually found on the ground foraging for insects and seeds, males occasionally sing their buzzy, cheerful song from the very top of the tallest evergreen around.
