Good one! This happened up the road as the pond was drying out last summer. They stayed until there were no puddles left.

Super nice shot of the Swamp Sparrow, Steve! It appears very sharp and lifelike.

Thanks! The second is actually a Cassin's Finch. Same genus, but found in mountains of western North America.

Great close-up, Pippan! :-)
Was it a crop or did you get that close?

Just a very slight crop Ray, this one and its mother and 2 siblings live around the picnic area and have little fear of humans, or me!.
