Wild Bird Wednesday


This cute little guy (although, from the lighter coloration I think it may be a little girl) ...  came to my birdie bath...a couple of weeks ago now...but, I didn't want to miss out on the Wednesday fun...even though it is already Thursday.

A baby sparrow...well, not really a baby, but still quite a young tyke; not much of a tail to speak of and so cute.

Don't forget... click on the picture to "biggify" ...you can sneak up a bit closer that way....



Eventually a young robin showed up as well.... and they shared.  Something most adult sparrows and robins don't seem to do .... funny how they get all territorial later in life.... hmmmm......

Now, I'm off to check out some birds on Wild Bird Wednesday.

Click on the pic below if you'd like to see some too....

I loved seeing the sparrow - thank you. We have several different types of birds that come to our feeder, but never have any sparrows.

Such a pretty little birdie! We only have jays, finches and chickadees around here.

I had a tail-less sparrow recently, couldn't get a good shot. I thought maybe it molted all it's tail feathers at one time.
