Song sparrow

The songs of this lovely songster, filled the backyard garden today where there were at least 6 song sparrows. Around the rest of the FWG, there were at least another 15. Amazing. The garden was full of song, with jucnos trilling, redpolls with their high-pitched calls, calling away, robins and song sparrows singing constantly, and on and on. Another happy sight and sound was a lone tree swallow flying and calling over the pond! Other birds seen today:

American goldfinch
American kestrel (pair)
Common redpoll
Common raven
American crow
European starling
Red-winged blackbird
White-breasted nuthatch
Black-capped chickadee
Dark-eyed junco
American robin
