While I was busy this autumn photographing the larger creatures such as elk, whitetails, and turkeys I still found time to captures some of the smaller birds when the opportunity presented.
White-throated Sparrows spend much of their time hopping around in the thick underbrush. A slight disturbance will cause them to fly to a nearby vantage point to check for danger. This defensive mechanism of the White-throated Sparrow came in quite handy when attempting to get one to pose for its portrait.

ReplyDeleteI think this little sparrow is one of the most handsome birds. I never knew they existed until about 2 years ago. Now I always keep an eye open at the feeder. They don't come around very often but I love when the do.
