I seen my Fox Sparrow about 10:00am this morning so quietly went outside =
and as soon as I peaked around the corner of my house it went into the =
thicket. (lol)=20

So this evening about 6:00pm I went out and layed my foam sleeping mat =
out and a green fleese blanket over top of me covering my body, head & =
face. (picture a sniper) I had my sprawl tripod & camera with 580 flash =
out in front of me to wait for the elusive Fox Sparrow's appearance at =
dust. Watching the Junko's & Chickadee's for an hour when finally at =
7:10 it hopped out into the open, then back in out of sight. About 5 =
minutes later it returned, with some anxious moments wondering if I was =
going to capture it or not I finally captured two images, then it was =
gone. My shoulders and back were killing me but well worth it for the =
very exciting hunt and captures. Loved it!

The first two images in the bird gallery are of the Fox Sparrow, click =
on to enlarge. There are other bird galleries as well if you go to main =
first.

about 6:30. :~)

Taken near Cooks Lake, Halifax County.
