Sparrow, Towhee, and Junco Photos

Emberizidae Family, Emberizinae Sub-family

Sparrows are one of my favorite subjects. A lot of people associate sparrows with common, drab birds, but the subtle beauty and variety in this group is really amazing. What's more, they tend to forage on, or close to the ground, making them easier to photograph than some species.
