Passer domesticus

The snowfall from a couple of days ago is rapidly melting, and there is plenty of water available again for the birds. As a result, we are not seeing as many Robins as we had been seeing before the snowfall. But the House Sparrows are having a great time. There is a flock of about 20 in the trees in the front yard, and when there's fresh seed on the ground in the back, they swarm over to the fence and eat up all the seed they can.
