Sparrows

The white-crowned sparrows are still here--it makes you wonder how they will have enough time to raise a brood when they return to the north. But according to The Birds of North Central Texas, the bird checklist maintained by the North Texas Bird and Wildlife Club, the birds are normally here until mid-May.

Out the window at Wild Bird Rescue today is a small flock (5 birds, at least) of clay-colored sparrows sorting through the wet vegetation for seeds.

Good birding!
