In the last week I have been to Prospect and Calvert-Vaux Parks, and came up empty handed for Vesper sparrows, but was able to see quite a few other species...
I think swamp sparrows are pretty handsome with that mahogany brown tone they have on their wings. |
At Prospect Park today (and last week) I went looking for a previously reported Vesper sparrow and mostly came up with Chipping Sparrows. |
And today... also a lot of song sparrows. |
I looked at every. single. song. sparrow... --I was hoping to spy a Lincoln's Sparrow. Nada. |
BUT... I did get to see the CUTEST sparrow-- one of two I saw around the LeFrak Center and Green Roof. |
For the sake of variety... When you finally think you are about to get a nice, crisp shot of a Ruby-crowned kinglet.... you get a nice, crisp shot of it's back side. |
A palm warbler shows off how it has mastered camouflage. |
More and more white-throated sparrows in the park. |
Still not a Lincoln's Sparrow. |
