I love Sparrows but even I get tired of hearing them sometimes. Evidently so did this male! Thank you Bill Bull for sharing this picture that someone shared with you!
Sharing my birding adventures is so much fun! Hope you'll come check back often!
Why are there Snakes, Frogs, and Alligators on a Birding Journal Blog?
When I go birding I always stumble across something else wonderful to take pictures of. Whether its flowers, butterflies, insects, or alligators it's all fun to see and share.
This Belted Kingfisher was sitting about 10 yards from us. He was too busy talking (not singing) to another Kingfisher across the Arroyo Colorado River to care about us.
