White Throat and White Crown

Sarala from Chicago, United States

Rayne, You probably are looking at house sparrows. They are very common, almost a pest. The White Crowns are migrants and the white throats are a mix of migrants but some over winter here in Chicago.
This is a great site for bird identification. You can even hear their calls.
