Chipping Sparrow, backyard, Alexandria, VA. After I got home from the walk, and a quilting class I taught, I thought I would content myself with my backyard birds. Here's a little better picture of a chipping sparrow at my feeder. They have been frequent visitors. Haven't seen the ruby throat again. Most of our time has been spent shooing squirrels away from the new window feeder I put up. I think I'll have to relocate it.
