We saw a new bird in the yard today. I believe it was a White-Throated Sparrow. These sparrows spend the summer in Canada, so it must be on it’s way north to find a summer home.  A few days later we got a new camera and snapped a good picture of the White-Throated Sparrow head on. The details you can see with the new camera are amazing and it focuses very quickly. I just need more practice with it.
