    Lost in New Jersey. This Clay-colored Sparrow is a rarity in our state; he belongs in the Great Plains, where the buffalo roam. Geoffrey and I were fortunate to get a good look at him the other day in a local preserve.

    Bill, lovely shot of this sparrow , nice pose and perch, I would like to see it a bit higher in frame to eliminate some
    of the negative space. Still very nice.

    Good one, Bill. You did well with the exposure under the harsh light we had to deal with. Like the calling pose also.
