This is my first time seeing a Fox Sparrow. I am glad I got photos of it in the snow at my feeders.

2 Steve February 8, 2010 at 7:19 am: Great! I see one Fox Sparrow each year (so far), when they pass through on their way north.
3 judi king February 8, 2010 at 9:06 am: Love the feather patterns on his belly. Beautiful pics of these little guys. I get more sparrows than anything else at my feeders but don’t know the many different kinds. Lost my birder book (think my “ex” has it), do you have a recommendation which is best?
4 Steve Creek February 8, 2010 at 9:13 am: Thanks judi!

I had to get help on identifying this sparrow myself. I need to get a book also.

6 Lili Feldman February 8, 2010 at 7:25 pm: What gorgeous clear shots. Again I am grateful for this site for showing me beauty I might never otherwise see. This little fox takes the cake in markings! Thanks Steve.
