Vesper Sparrow - Madrona Marsh
"Life Bird!" Record/I.D. Shot.
Pekabo and I were headed for the exit, as the sun was setting on a long, fun afternoon of birding, when this little guy dashed out onto the shaded path quite a distance in front of us. There was something "different" so I snapped some "unFlickrworthy" shots just for the record. Once on the computer at home, I could not nail down an I.D. Then I saw Mickey Long's lovely Flickr post of a Vesper Sparrow that seemed to fit. Could it be?
Many thanks to Lou, Mickey and Manuel for confirming the I.D. of this little rascal!
