| The White-crowned Sparrow (Zonotrichia leucophrys) breeds across much of the northern United States and most of Canada and Alaska. The species winters in the southern half of the U.S. and into Mexico. Adults have black and white striped crowns while immature birds show tan and brown striped crowns. The bird here was photographed in Starr Co., Texas, in February, 1998, with a Canon T-90 and Sigma 500mm F/4.5 lens and 1.4X extender on Fuji Sensia. The next three shots were all taken in February, 2000, in Kenedy Co., Texas, with a Canon EOS 3 and EF 600mm F/4 L lens and 1.4X extender on Fuji Velvia. |  |
