Tan vs White proportions[edit]

I don't believe it's correct that white morphs are more common than tan; they are just more conspicous. Can anyone confirm or deny this? --Sambostock 21:21, 30 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Main song[edit]

I don't know who Sam Peabody is, because north of the border the white-throated sparrow song is interpreted as "Pure sweet Canada, Canada, Canada." Pendragon39 16:01, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Slashes[edit]

Does "The auriculars are gray/light brown" mean they're gray or light brown?

Does "gray/tan streaks" mean streaks that are either gray or tan? Or alternating gray and tan? —JerryFriedman (Talk) 04:07, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Purpose?[edit]

Why is there a large blank space under the diet section?Aythya affinis (talk) 15:10, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
