I was watching reruns of What Not to Wear the other day. God I miss Stacy and Clinton. That was a fun show. I also miss the hope that one day I’d get to be on it.
This bird was tweeting the other day as I walked past and I loved the sounds it made. It’s a common bird, but I must admit I don’t know what it is.
Ah, the infamous LBJ as known by birders or for non-birders, Little Brown Job. It’s a sparrow; could be a house sparrow but I can’t really say for certain from the picture.
Thanks for letting me know! He was a sweet little guy. I love him. I miss him. Just that one.
It is a House Sparrow, otherwise known as an English Sparrow? May be too much information but that’s a misnomer because it isn’t a Sparrow in ornithologic terms . It is a Weaver Finch, originally from England, imported to help eat all the horse manure when that was a problem in cities like NYC. Now, because there isn’t as much horse manure in cities, their numbers are declining.
Stacy, that first sentence wasn’t a question, the question mark is a typo. Sorry!
Poor little guys! I love them. Lets get more manure for them! (And thank you for that information.)
