Stephen > White crowned sparrow on fence.  I am not fond of the perch, although typical for a suburban environment, but it did let me get close.  Midlothian, Texas, April 2007.
Stephen > As I was photographing some bald eagles in the Texas Hill Country, I noticed that these little vesper sparrows were flying from tree to tree then from tree to ground to tree as they fed.  I turned my lens and took this quick snapshot of one on the ground.
Stephen > I wish the angle were not as steep but at least the shot is clean.  This savannah sparrow took some time to perch at the top of a juniper tree.  It let me get about this close before giving its typical peeping sound and darting away.  Midlothian, Texas, March 2008.
Stephen > This was just one of the many savannah sparrows that I find regularly in the field next to my house.  This one was perched on some limestone rocks that had been excavated for a road that is going to be put on the land.  Midlothian, Texas, March 2008.
Stephen > The Savannah Sparrows have been gathering in large flocks around my house lately.  They do not stay put for a long time, but this one gave me a few seconds before flying off once again, Midlothian, Texas, March 2008.
