Can you please help me ID this Sparrow? It may be a Lark Sparrow, but I'm not sure. This photo was taken in Hamilton, TX, this past weekend. Thanks!

Cropping the pic could help with an Id. From "what I am seeing" the bill looks to be of a Warbler which would lead me to a Palm Warbler, not sure though.

Appears to me to be either a Sanannah Sparrow or Vesper Sparrow. They are very similar. The Vesper has a white eye-ring, can't see it here. Also has a little longer tail. My guess is a juvenile Savannah Sparrow.
