Another Little Brown Job

tags: , , ,

A friend who is a professor of Biology at KSU sent me a bunch of lovely images of sparrows that he took recently while birding. The song sparrow is one of the species that I studied for my dissertation work, although most of my dissertation focused on the white-crowned sparrow. These images are scheduled to appear daily at 3 pm from 6 November through 16 November.

I have really enjoyed seeing these little fellows. It's more exciting to me to observe the lives of my backyard birds than to spot an exotic species. Thanks for the wonderful photos to both you and your friend.

Stunning photos. Better than I can see through the binoculars. Hope you are staying upbeat over the holidays.

Your photo gallery is amazing. I especially enjoyed the crane trio. Thanks for the link!
