American Tree Sparrow

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. These images are scheduled to appear at 3 pm beginning today, 6 November through the 16th of November.

That's a pretty little bird, almost as attractive as the Carolina Wrens that insist on nesting in my garage.

Yeah, and he might be puffing a little for the camera. (Or just chilly.) I like the "little brown birds", they often have gorgeous patterns when looked at carefully. A pity my camera's too slow & limited to really do birds well.
