The Song Sparrow (Melospiza melodia) is a breeding species of most of the northern two-thirds of the United States and most of Canada. The bird winters in the southern two-thirds of the U.S. The first two shots here show a wintering Song Sparrow at Bosque del Apache N.W.R., Socorro Co., New Mexico, in November, 2005. These digital images were taken with a Canon EOS 1D Mark II and EF 600mm F/4 L IS lens and 2X extender. | |
The next two shots show a Song Sparrow in Caprock Canyons State Park, Briscoe Co., Texas, in December, 2005. These two shots were taken with the same gear as the top two images. | |
The territorial and singing Song Sparrow in the next two shots was at Coyote Creek State Park, Mora Co., New Mexico, in June, 2007. These images were taken with a Canon EOS 1D Mark III and EF 600mm F/4 L IS lens and 2X extender. | |
