This little bird came to sit just outside my window as I was attempting to take some pictures of my bird feeder.  The House Finches are finally back at my feeders.  |

Hi Phoebe! Id say your new camera is working out great!
That sparrow posing nicely at the top is a Song Sparrow. Do the House Finches nest in your yard? Where I grew up they would nest in the cedar hedges every summer.

Thanks for the ID of the Song Sparrow, Gord. Some of them still get me a little confused as they look so much alike. As for the House Finches nesting in our yard, I haven't seen any nests, but then again, that's not to say they aren't there. So far we've identified over 30 different birds around our home throughout the year and the number is rising, so hopefully we will spot some nests this spring.
