After reading your post I think I have it straight and now realize that I still haven't photographed a fox sparrow.Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09746264095107957447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244742666700467053.post-14053063609576687192009-07-11T06:47:26.881-07:002009-07-11T06:47:26.881-07:00Excellent pictures posted with good written descri...Excellent pictures posted with good written description.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.heavennyc.com" rel="nofollow"> Alternative energy </a>AMIThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09271598940693313554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244742666700467053.post-25767751052344200122008-12-27T07:24:00.000-08:002008-12-27T07:24:00.000-08:00This was an informative post.

I don't usually got Fox Sparrows at my feeders in Ohio until late winter (February, March), and they always seem much larger than the other sparrows.
