Birders

Enjoy the little cutie while you can.

We get some white-crowned sparrows, but I don't recall seeing this "flavor." The sparrows that frequent our feeders and patio never sit still long enough for good pictures. They are the very definition of "flighty' - our sliding glass door in the kitchen look out on the patio, and if I make the slightest move while in the kitchen, they all scatter immediately. If I stand stock-still at the doors, they usually stay away.

I've tried to identify how many different kinds of sparrows visit us, but their flightiness makes in damn near impossible. I know we have white-crowned sparrows, some with black throats, some with brown heads, and some that are almost monotone with minimal markings.

I enjoy watching all of them, even tho I'm not sure "who" they are.
