[cobirds] Arapahoe County Yard Bird - probable White-throated Sparrow

Cobirders,

I noticed a sparrow yesterday in my backyard but thought it was a song sparrow and did not really check it out.  Rethought that decision today as it was scratching around under the thistle feeder with regularity.  Got out my scope to check lores more closely.  Looks like a tan stripe WTSP with yellowish lores and faint streaking to upper breast.  Also had a Swainson's Thrush today!
