Fox Sparrow (Passerella iliaca). Family Passerellidae, order Passeriformes.

This was my first time ever seeing one, and I've been obsessed ever since. In winter when we get a rare snow that lasts more than a day, I would get a few more species at/around my feeders that didn't typically come around. I had this little one several days in a row while the snow persisted.
