Grasshopper Sparrow

Grasshopper Sparrow looks out across an overgrown field. A place affectionately referred to as "recession acres", it's a failed housing community that went under during the first housing bubble. There are roads but no buildings, and the place is mowed once a year; forming a beautiful shortgrass prairie. The place is alive with grassland species. Unfortunately, this is probably the last year for this space. All the plots have been sold, and buildings and new roads are going in.
