Last sparrow blog for a while...

FOX SPARROW
(Passerella iliaca)
Easily recognized by its 'foxy' red-brown colour and larger size, for a sparrow.   In summer its northern habitat stretches from Alaska right across Canada to Newfoundland.   In winter, it is found ranging from Texas to Massachusetts.   Its red colour is very attractive and takes some of the ennui out of identifying sparrow species that often look alike.
