DA Tutorial Bird — Description

Just something for #BirdTutorial (and maybe to earn myself an Bird Badge). I normally don't do tutorials, unless it involves animals, so I just couldn't pass this one up.
This species is the white crowned sparrow (Zonotrichia leucophrys), a member of the New World sparrow family. I tried to make this look realistic and accurate, by bird standards, but I think I just made the top of the head look more pointed than it's supposed to be (which should be shaped like a dome). Still, it was worth drawing one of the very animals we shared our our own backyards with.
Here's a little song that would go well with it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQ-BPdkoSMw. I know, it's very emotional, especially for me, but I had to.
