Savannah Sparrow


"Just" a common little Savannah Sparrow, taken SW of the city, on 7 June 2014. It posed so nicely for a brief moment. Love to see their bright yellow "eyebrows".
"Not all streaky brown birds are impossible to identify. Take a closer look at this one and you’ll see an understated but distinctive sparrow with a short tail, small head, and telltale yellow spot before the eye. Savannah Sparrows are one of the most numerous songbirds in North America, and while sometimes overlooked, are likely visitors across the continent. In summer, they don’t hesitate to advertise their location, belting out a loud, insect-like song from farm fields and grasslands." From AllAboutBirds.
