Nice pics.
Ive never seen one of these.

Thanks, Jeremy.
If you ask me, this is one of our most beautiful sparrows.
Sorry about the soft focus.

Beautiful shots Barry

Very nice shots, A little surprised that you managed focus at all, the branches make it very difficult to get a lock. Or did you use manual focus??.

Very nice Barry, they sure do love the low scrub and sticks. I have not seen but one this year. Number one is giving you quite a look!

Thanks a bunch, John, John, and Bret.
Bret, yes that is quite the look Also, a cooper’s hawk was in the area so these fellows weren’t straying far from cover.
John, I was using the center auto-focus point but still found it difficult to get a lock on them because of all the brush.
Thanks again.

Nice Barry... Haven't seen a white throat for a while

Always good to see these fellows, my favorite sparrows.

Thanks, Jeff. This is the first I've seen in a long time.
Gabe, me too! My favorite sparrow.
