Grasshopper Sparrow

I saw the sparrows this afternoon, so I crept out with the big gun to see if I could get a better picture than through the kitchen window. This time he was sitting on top of the cecile brunner rose bush.

I think I was successful! 

I broke down and put out some seed for them. They have been very appreciative and I have been rewarded with being able to watch them. So far, the pigeons have not got wind of the food.

I am grateful for my little feathered friends.
