Dead Sea sparrow underparts are grey-white. The female is like a small house sparrow, with a streaked brown back, greyish head and buff-white underparts. She is paler and smaller billed than the house sparrow, and sometimes shows yellow on the neck sides. The eastern race "P. m. yatii" is sandier, and the male has a yellow wash to the underparts. The chirping song resembles those of house and Spanish sparrows, but is softer. The flight call is a high-pitched "chi-wit". This species is often silent. As its name suggests, is a breeding bird around the River Jordan, Dead Sea, and into Iraq, Iran
