reference that stated all tan striped sparrows were the females. But the most astonishing theory was, while the opposite colors "almost always" mate, all males (whether white or tan) prefer females with white stripes. Both types of females prefer males of tan stripes. (Who did that survey, anyway?) The white striped version is more aggressive than the tan, so the white female will select the tan male. More
