Recuperation journey: Who knew?

I pulled into the driveway the other day and saw a lot of birds looking for seeds in the yard. 

I rolled down the window and took a few photos. They all would have taken off had I gotten out of the car. 

I never realized these birds that seem so plentiful around here had such interesting markings. I thought they were simply a grayish-brown color.
