Birding since the late 1980s...mid 40s birder. Being out in nature and hearing the morning chorus, seeing how birds interact with their surroundings and go about their lives provides me a greater understanding of the natural environment we live in. With bird photography, every photo is different, which makes seeing the same and different species exciting.

I had a few different angles of this species, but this one depicts the all-orange mandible and the broken eye ring on top of the eye. It helped also that the bird was calling. White Lake Grasslands reserve, BC, Canada.

I haven't seen this species since April 1990, so it was a tremendous reward not only to see him but to get a photo. West of White Lake, Okanagan, British Columbia, Canada.

This has been a Vesper Sparrow year; must have seen at least 2 dozen in the region between Calgary and Medicine Hat.
