Title: White Crowned Sparrow
Post by: Niloc on October 05, 2010, 11:06:50 AM

This is a wonderful rare treat for me as this bird showed up about a week ago and has been at our bird feeder on our deck daily....never seen the White Crowned Sparrow in our backyard although I saw many in May just down the street from where we live in a park. That only lasted about 3 days and then they were gone...

Thanks Denis, in the past few weeks Ashbridges Bay has been full of them also the Brickworks...not sure if they are passing through of wintering here but they are quite beautiful...funny thing the one I photographed seemed to be on his own have not seen multiple sightings..
