Little bird, big caterpillar

Little bird, big caterpillar
Not the greatest quality. Cropped too closely, which is a bad habit I have, lol! However, this tiny Savannah Sparrow, with a large caterpillar in its beak, made me smile. Ha, maybe a Brown-headed Cowbird laid an egg in the Sparrow's nest and it now has a HUGE baby to feed. Unfortunately, it was so far away and I knew it would fly off if I tried to get closer. Taken along a backroad SW of Calgary on 2 July 2013. It looked like it was having probelms with keeping its balance - love those little legs : )

Thanks, Art! Lol, watching this little bird, I almost got the feeling that it wasn't quite sure how to take off, carrying such a big meal for its babies.
