I am a White-throated Sparrow
Some of us have white head stripes, others have tan
Somewhere out in the world
There's a tan-stripe headed girl
Looking for a white-stripe headed man.

(According to the linked article, these birds usually mate with a bird of the opposite morph.)

Location: Pearson Metro Park, Oregon, OH
