The picture of this Song Sparrow on a vine was taken at the Jamaica Bay National Wildlife Refuge.
The picture of this Song Sparrow was taken with the CANON EOS7D and the CANON 100-400mm lens and the CANON 580EXII flash.
The male Song Sparrow uses its song to attract mates as well as defend its territory.
Listen to the Song Sparrow song below
the sparrow is adorable but I am especially thrilled with the roller-coaster tangle of vine !
Fitting that you recognize the wisdom of the female song sparrow in choosing the male with the best song! And I know you also recognize a great voice when you hear it.
Thanks for your comment, Lorenz. I like the roller-coaster analogy.
Thanks for your comment. I do believe you are right about my recognizing a great voice – so far so good!
