White-crowned sparrow

My garden. We've been treated to large numbers of this species in the garden for about 8 days now, and it truly is a treat to see these beautiful birds. Soon enough they'll be gone, heading further north to breed and we'll have to wait until autumn to see them again.

This one looks to be very cheeky for a bird passing through with little time to get used to you. A delight!
