Title: White Crown Sparrow...
Post by: juanital on June 05, 2009, 11:17:27 PM
Haven't seen these guys around for a week or so but it was a pleasure...There was about 5 of them who hung out for 3wks. Not sure if they left or that nesting duty calls...There's been a grosbeak who has been coming to the feeder and saw a couple yellow warbler's this morning...The robins have hatched and now have fledged-the bluebird babies are about a week old -5 of them,  sweethearts-The usual Gold-House finches, Chipping and Song Sparrows, Tufted timouses, 2 sets of them and Cardinals, 2, 3 sets of those, Mocking birds have nest with 2 eggs, they nested across the bluebirds...They all seem busy, darting here and there-Such excitement...Oh yeah-we also have a regular white tailed chickadee and mate who visits regularly, too! Hummers, also...Morning seems to be the best time for seeing the not usual bird visitors or sitings and to hear all the bird songs...I believe they are raising their voices to God -giving thanks for the day!!! Thanks for your patience of listening to my ramblings!

Hey, Juanita!

I'm so happy you posted that.  I've had some of those in my garden and I wondered what they were!

Thanks so much!

I have seen these as well but never knew that they were anything other than "ordinary sparrows"  Thank you for the clarification. 

Well done!

I know from your description that must be a great place to just sit and kill time.

Great Shots!
