Song Sparrow

Song sparrow photographed at Cromwell Valley Park near Towson, MD on January 27, 2015

These little song sparrows at Cromwell Valley Park, Maryland tend to stay in the meadow under the cover of thick brush. I haven’t observed them near the park’s feeders and caught a good sunlight shot of this one as I was taking a shortcut through the upper pasture.

They have a number of melodic calls and songs, that you can listen to at the Audubon website before heading into the field.
