White-crowned Sparrow in Douglas Fir by Robert Bateman

White-crowned Sparrow in Douglas Fir by Robert Bateman available from Prickly Pear Galleries.

 

"On my first trip out West, I was startled to hear white-crowned sparrows singing right in the city of Vancouver. We would check them carefully to sort them out from the commoner white-throated sparrows. The 'white-crowns' have prominent, almost bouffant or brush cut, white crowns and a grayer look."  - Robert Bateman.
