Little birds, January 23, 2007


I took these this morning. I'm not sure what the first one is, a type of sparrow maybe. There were a lot about. The second on is the Black Capped Chick a Dee.

Thanks Nic, I feel like a kid at xmas when I get a decent picture. I've looked through my bird books and checked some on the internet, but still can't tell. I think you may be right with song sparrow. I'm thinking maybe a house sparrow as well????

Pine Siskins have yellow on them and I didn't see any yellow on these birds.

I've looked at pictures of the Pine Siskin on the internet and yes, I now believe this is what it is.
