Summer Sparrow

On July 11, 2016July 11, 2016 By Mike and Christy

We heard this female Sparrow chirping away and singing non stop from the other side of the lake. When we got nearer to her she went silent but did allow a few quick photos before darting back into the thicker brush along the lakeshore.

  Indeed and quite happy to let us snap a few photos. Probably knew we would post them here and that would make her sparrow lady friends jealous. 🙂

  Hi David, yes this sparrow let us get close so getting a nice shot was a bit easier than usual and she hung out for a moment so we could contemplate camera setting and DOF.
