WHITE-THROATED SPARROW

I enjoyed taking photos of this little visitor the other day.  These are from my regular camera, not the deck cam.  I don't remember seeing a White-throated Sparrow in our garden before.  They have generally been the House Sparrow or Song Sparrow.
This link will take you to the Audubon website.  You can scroll down to see other information.
A very enjoyable little visitor to be sure.




Yesterday we woke up to a dusting of snow, which turned to sleet, and the snow disappeared quickly.  Now we have icy rain for the next couple of days or so.  As I am getting this post ready (February 12th, 2019 at 5.50 p.m.) it is 33 degrees F.  Tomorrow it will be dry but windy.  
I am paying more attention to the weather - is that an age thing?  On these inclement days I turn into a bit of a hermit.  

Our weather is not as bad as what many of you have to deal with, so I wish you all safe travels, with hot chocolate and a warm fire to sit by when you get home.
