20151109 281 283 American Tree Sparrow (L) White-crowned Sparrow (R).jpg

Ottawa West

Two images merged/cloned together to show the difference between the two Sparrows. The two consecutive shots of the two Sparrows were taken as they were feeding together on the same rock. The shots were taken from the same location/distance, alternately focusing on each Sparrow. According to my info, the W-c Sparrow is about 40% heavier that the Tree Sparrow. This difference in size/weight appears evident in this combined image.
