Song Sparrow Serenade – Happy Birthday Chris!
I was serenaded by this Song Sparrow yesterday on the rut-filled road at Farmington Bay WMA. It might seem odd, but this bird reminded me of my youngest son.

I've been hearing more Savannah Sparrows than usual at Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge this spring. I hope that means their numbers are increasing.
When I photographed this Song Sparrow close to home two days ago it perched out in the open for almost a minute on the cool, late winter morning.
I took a series of Western Meadowlark photos three mornings ago at Farmington Bay WMA while the sun was shining.
The Song Sparrow didn't let the gray clouds overhead, the moisture in the air or its damp feathers stop it from singing to all the other birds within earshot. I have to admire that.
The males will start singing before too long and the Marsh Wren nesting season in Utah will begin.
