White Throated Sparrow

This White Throated Sparrow is a first for me. He never eats at the birdfeeder, but eats on the ground below the feeder.

I have been watching this bird all month, taken several photos.

But none had been as good to identify him by as these that I took yesterday.

I was sitting in my 'blind' wondering why I was sitting there when this bird came into my view. Then I knew why I was sitting there. Another bird for my lifer list.

The backyard at Rockwood has been very good for bird lifer list.
