Great singing pose of this rarity -- at least for me. Good detail, background; nice light. Kudos for preserving some habitat for this threatened little guy. Thanks to people like you I might still have a chance to see one some day.

Hey Henry, I'm a fan of sparrows so this has my attention! I love the singing pose, and the bit of dry grass it is perched on. Good BG, great light. Compositionally I could see a more vertical presentation with some more room above. For my eye a bit better overall body angle would have been better, but I still like the image overall. I also appreciate the work you've done on your land for nature and wildlife (I've seen the updates on FB - sounds like a great place).

Excellent shot of a very special sparrow. Wonderful active pose in fine light, technically just about perfect.
I'd have been tempted to sacrifice the interesting perch to move the bird down and give it a bit more room.
Lucky you, you'll probably get a chance to see it again. On second thought, not entirely lucky given your role in restoring the prairie.
Good for you!
