Two new birds this morning seen in the Weaslehead Natural Area in SW Calgary.

First time I've seen one of these White-throated Sparrows. Tough little buggers to get a shot of. They wander through the trees on the ground and never really give you a clear shot.

A morning walk down in Weaselhead turned up a few nice sightings.

These guys never give you a very good chance for a clear shot.

White-throated sparrow seen at Wyndham-Carseland Park on Jan 25. I didn't notice while I was taking some shots, that the birds were walking around on an ocean of seeds that people had thrown down for them.
