Harris's Sparrow Photos

My Favorite: There are a lot of sparrow species that are here for the summer and/or migrate through in the spring and the fall, many of which have some similar characteristics. And then there's the Harris's Sparrow. It's big and chunk, with a plumage pattern unlike any other sparrow that is found in South Dakota. Unmistakable and downright beautiful birds!. My favorite is the following, taken on October 8th, 2008 near Corson, South Dakota
