It was nice to see this sparrow on the ground at a relatively close distance. I usually spot them high up in the trees flying from branch to branch. The bird was nicely framed by new vegetation and seemed to be listening for something.
The colors are so vibrant on males in the spring. In Central Park White-throats are ground feeders in winter and toss leaves around and shuffle their feet to dig.

This is a really lovely capture, Belinda. A sweet little bird with a fun song that my grandmother taught me when I was very young.

Once again I am reminded of a bird we don’t see in the Lowcountry.
