Richard,
Great shot of the unusual bird. At first glance the bird looks like a Snow
Bunting, but upon closer examination you can tell it isn't. I don't know which
sparrow species it is, but the bill and head shape don't look quite right to me
for a Song Sparrow, though I could be wrong. I was wrong once many years ago :)
Hey, I am really enjoying my new camera. I love the way it focuses. I just
ordered an 8 gig and a 4 gig card for it.

Folks,
Had what may be a leucosystic (hope that's the correct word) Song Sparrow in
our stream this afternoon as well as female Blue and Rose-Breasted Grosbeaks.
Here are two photos of the sparrow for your consideration...
Enjoy the birds...
