Although it is enjoyable and challenging to try to photograph large, colorful birds, I often find myself returning to photographing smaller, more ordinary birds. It’s a different kind of challenge capturing images of these little birds, who seem to be in constant motion.
This afternoon I was able to photograph this Song Sparrow (Melospiza melodia) when he stopped for a moment to get a drink of water.

Love it. When trolling the WP Reader, I’m beginning to know your photos before I see you pic at the bottom. 😉
Thanks, Jerry. I love taking photos and enjoy sharing them with others. You may notice a slight shift in subjects as the weather warms up and flowers and insects reappear.
Nice shot!
That young Creature … beautiful and sweet photo 🙂
Thanks.
