A Winter Record of the White-crowned Sparrow in Los Angeles

On December 15, 1922, in an interval between showers, I observed in a partly leafless poplar tree, above the birds’ bath in my garden, two birds which appeared to be Zonotrichia Zeucophrys Zeucophrys. The white stripe at the side of the head terminated at the eye, the black stripe above extended to the bill and filled in the loral space, in complete accord with the description and with the illustration furnished by the United States Biological Survey.
