White-crowned Sparrow, Lagoon Trail, Del Mar, California

Thanks, Jacki! It's brome. I took a screen capture of your first puzzle showing it and added it and the url to my wish list.

The bird feeder is called the Squirrel Buster and can be found on
www.brumebirdcare.com or www.bromebirdcare.com.
It's printed on the bird feeder up where it's hard to read so I'm not positive whether it's u or o but at most you only have to try twice to find it.

You're welcome, Will. Jacki is right, I get a lot more photos of big birds!

You're right, Jacki, but with almost 400 along the trails, there should be one or two on the bushes like this! :-)

Thanks again, Ginni. Lovely photo. Another one we don't have :-((

They're small and they hide so well in bushes and trees they're much harder to find and photograph than herons and egrets.

Thanks, Jacki. The monthly bird count group saw 372 of these sparrows in November, and I've only gotten this one good shot. I need to pay more attention! :-)

A beautiful portrait, Ginni! Thanks.

@WillTapper - Here's another sparrow for you, Will!
