Sparrow Standoff

I captured this fleeting interaction between a flying house sparrow (Passer domesticus) and what I believe to be a perched chipping sparrow (Spizella passerina) on a trellis. It may be a territorial dispute, or simply an exchange of instinct-driven behavior. Observing birds interact is always fascinating, offering a glimpse into their complex communication and dynamics.

Sparrow's Prize Moment

Chipping sparrows (Spizella passerina) are abundant right now, though they will soon begin their migration north in the coming months. While I often spot them at my bird feeders enjoying seeds, they are also known to feed on insects. Here is one captured in a remarkable moment, perched with a small green caterpillar in its beak.

Nature's Minimalist

The plumage of chipping sparrows (Spizella passerina) provides excellent camouflage. In the original photo of this bird, I had to carefully search to spot it among the bare branches of the tree. At this time of year, these birds are abundant, but in the coming weeks, they will migrate back to the north.

Spring Feeder

I've received inquiries about purchasing prints of my photographs. Since photography is a hobby for me, I haven’t been fully prepared to handle these requests in the past. However, I truly enjoy capturing moments through my lens and want to share my work with others.

To make this possible, I’ve set up an account and website through Pixels:
