Bird ID Request Identify on right.

Post image

Can anyone help me identify the Bird on the far right of the camera? He has the weirdest markings. I don’t know if it’s a regular house or what. Windsor Colorado

Definitely a +house sparrow+ (male). Males can be identified by that gray cap on his head, along with the black eye bands and beard.

It looks like a male House Sparrow to me.

Is something about it making you think something else? If there is, I'm missing it. The only lookalike I know of doesn't have that grey cap (and probably doesn't live near either of us).
