@miyotehew such perfect little overlooked birds, and what lovely photos of them. 馃挌 I can't wait until they arrive back here in the spring! I should start seeing the first ones arriving next month...

@idzie I love them 馃挌 It's true, they are so small and easily missed. Their song is beautiful and how proud they are to share it. I try be near them when I hear it! Spring is showing signs here on the west coast. Thank you, I hope you see and hear a Song Sparrow soon! :)

(here's a shaky clip of Song Sparrow's song)

@miyotehew thanks for sharing!! Their song is such a near-constant for all the warm months here, it's so nice. I took this video last fall, with the keen awareness that it would likely be one of the last times I heard their song for many months (I was right). https://kolektiva.social/system/media_attachments/files/115/458/747/157/652/407/original/7c3144e27a4f84da.mp4

@idzie aww, that was cute. They'll be back soon, its warming up. Here on the west coast, it hasn't felt like like winter yet..and these little ones are still around. Maybe they are resident Song Sparrows now 馃槃

@miyotehew it's true it's only a bit under freezing this week, instead of the deep freeze of the past few weeks. 馃槄

I'm sorry it hasn't felt like winter, at least for me when that happens I know it comes with existential dread and sadness... But I'm very glad you still have the song sparrows around! Not bad residents lol
