Sparrow, house or plain backed? Empty Sparrow, house or plain backed?

Found this one picking up scrap (meant for my chickens) from my backyard and flying off with FIM, obviously
there must be nestlings close by. Is it a female House or Plain-backed Sparrow?

looks much like a House Sparrow but the pattern is odd, I suspect this is not a female, could be a young male..... will check again what other sparrows occurs in Thailand to be sure...

I tend to think female House too because I saw the breast part which isn't the usual light creamy yellow with Plain-backed. Thanks bro!

Seemed like it was in fact female House Sparrow, perhaps due to subspecies, I remembered the Auckland females seemed to be paler.
