It would be nice if there was a map about the distribution and habitat of the bird. An audio sample of the bird's song would be excellent!

Any thoughts?

This seems like an interesting suggestion from one of our readers. Do you think it would be worth it to add a paragraph about this?

Show how this sparrow compares to other sparrows in terms of size, as well as color and sounds. Use multimedia to make these comparisons quick and informative.

Just a thought,

I would like to hear what the bird sounds like. Can you add some audio files?

Note: A lot of folks have requested sounds. Could we try to find a good audio file of the bird's characteristic call?

Any thoughts?
