  2. White-Crowned Sparrow

    White-Crowned Sparrow

    Taken at the Martin Luther King Jr. Regional Shoreline at about 5m. Brave little sparrow! I'd point out that the bird is not nesting, near as we could tell. This bird was just off a busy, paved walking trail and caught our attention. After the bird moved-off we really didn't see any indication...
  3. Golden-Crowned Sparrow

    Golden-Crowned Sparrow

    Taken at the Martin Luther King Jr. Regional Shoreline at about 65m. These birds are common here, and while I've photographed them in ways more flattering to their namesake heads or their lovely body patterns, I just kinda like this nice photo of the bird up in a tree. Honestly, I'm a bit...
  4. Golden-Crowned Sparrow

    Golden-Crowned Sparrow

    Taken near the Sundial Bridge (Redding, CA, USA). Yeah we see these out at home all the time, a very common LBJ. But part of the fun of the photography is not just getting pretty photos of new birds, but taking photos of birds I've already seen in environments that are new, like being on...
  5. White-Crowned Sparrow

    White-Crowned Sparrow

    Taken at the Martin Luther King Jr. Regional Shoreline (Oakland, CA, USA) at less than 5m. I know I already have photos of this species, but around here, they are one of the more colorful local birds, and I just like all the patterns and contrasts. Besides, they are reasonably people-tolerant...
  6. White-Crowned Sparrow

    White-Crowned Sparrow

    Taken at the Martin Luther King Jr. Regional Shoreline at about 7m. Surprisingly good camouflage, yes?
  7. Golden-Crowned Sparrow

    Golden-Crowned Sparrow

    Taken at the Martin Luther King Jr. Regional Shoreline at about 6m. Caught this little one strip-feeding on seeds.
  8. White-Crowned Sparrow

    White-Crowned Sparrow

    Taken at the Martin Luther King Jr. Regional Shoreline at about 12m. I've taken photos of these birds before, and they always seem to have an air about them.
  9. Golden-Crowned Sparrow

    Golden-Crowned Sparrow

    Taken at the Martin Luther King Jr. Regional Shoreline at about 5m. Thought the setting was cute, and a better view of his lovely crown than my other photos.
  10. Golden-Crowned Sparrow

    Golden-Crowned Sparrow

    Taken at the Martin Luther King Jr. Regional Shoreline at approximately 6m. Backlighting and heavy contrast made me think I missed this photo...ah the wonders of ACR and Photoshop.
  11. Golden-Crowned Sparrow (first winter)

    Golden-Crowned Sparrow (first winter)

    Taken at the Oyster Bay Regional Shoreline at approximately 8m. Seems all the little sparrows around here are a variation on a theme...brown on brown, hint of black, white underside, and sometimes a little color or stripes on the head. Some days, what I wouldn't give for some more colorful...
  12. White-throated Sparrow

    White-throated Sparrow

    White-throated Sparrow (Zonotrichia albicollis) Photographed at Camelot Park, Bryan, Brazos County, Texas, USA. Riparian; hackberry/elm dominated woodland adjacent to a creek at ca. 91 m (300 ft) elevation. Post Oak Savannah Vegetational Area.
