[edit] Tan vs White proportions

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)

[edit] Main song

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)
