Vesper Sparrow
After spending a couple of days in Gove County with the prairie chickens and chalk cliff formations, we drove to south central Kansas to visit Quivira National Wildlife Refuge and nearby Cheyenne Bottoms Wildlife Area. One bird that was in evidence everywhere we went was the Vesper Sparrow-- a species I'd not run across in quite a while and had never photographed, but they were everywhere we looked-- by far the predominant sparrow species. This was taken early in the day at Quivira NWR.
