Yard Birds - May 8 and 9

We have been having a lot of sparrows around lately.  Among others- House, Savannah, Harris, and these:

This is a pretty little Vesper Sparrow,


The beautiful little Chipping sparrow


and my Favorite White Crowned Sparrow


Not Sparrows, but Brown Headed Cowbirds have been making themselves well known.. Chasing off everything..


And we have a couple drumming Sapsuckers as well!
