Scott's Seaside Sparrow
This is a southern sub-species of the seaside sparrow, being found from the more northern parts of Florida on the Atlantic coast to South Carolina, and on the Gulf coast from Florida to Texas. The most noticeable difference is in the dark streaks on the breast and sides, which are much more sharply defined in the southern variety. The nesting habits are described as being identical.
