I captured this White-throated Sparrow in the boxelder just off the deck. In looking up its entry on the All About Birds site I came across its lovely call. So this is the song I’ve heard the past few days! I invite you to click the link and listen to its cheerful tune.

Every day while I am at work, this sparrow (I think it’s a Song Sparrow) graces me with its lovely song.
Robins strike me as being industrious creatures. A robin will land, cock its head to scan for a tasty morsel. Not seeing one it runs with confident purpose, stops, cocks its head. Snaps up a bugs or tugs a worm out of the ground, devours its find. Runs confidently, repeats. I enjoy watching them at work, and greatly enjoy hearing their beautiful, happy, caroling.

The male goldfinches are finishing their spring molt. Such beautiful birds, their song is liquid gold, sweet and delightful to hear.
