The sparrows were in full force in the prairie today around Lake Evergreen. I took 100's of sparrow images. Of course most are of a bird's butt as they fly for deeper cover, but I have several keepers and this is the most exciting so far. This is a Harris's Sparrow and it isn't very common here in Illinois so I was excited to see it as I was reviewing my images from the day. I truly thought it was another one of the many more common sparrows I photographed. What a great surprise and reward as this is my first time seeing and photographing one.
