Song Sparrow

Song Sparrows here in Oregon, at least this time of the year, are like House Sparrows were when I was growing up in Minnesota. They are everywhere. They are reasonably trusting so I can get pretty close, like in this picture, and make for a good picture. This one was sitting on a barbed wire along top of a fence by Teal Pond at Jackson Bottom Wetlands. I like the contrast between the warmth of the organic against the cold of the wire. The colors also work well together.
