Hello Eileen! I have so missed being able to stop by your blog and enjoy your great photos. We have the White Throated sparrow in our neck of the woods, but I had no idea what it was--Thanks for the ID!

I hope all is well with you, and that you have a great weekend!

Debbie said...

the last image of the white throated sparrow is a real winner!!! my squirrels have been laying in my flower pots, ones i use for my vegetables that i have not planted yet. they better not get too comfortable!!

the daffodils are beautiful, it looks like they are thriving in a very "natural" l part of the yard!!

have a great weekend!!!

White-throated Sparrows (and White-crowned) for that matter have returned here, and what a welcome sight they are. Very handsome birds indeed.
