He couldn't have perched in a more perfect place. I was so pleased to have about a dozen of these appear in my yard a couple of weeks ago. They stand out so smartly from the regular sparrows with their striped heads. I was thinking they had decided to stay for the summer but when I went away for a weekend of camping and the food on the back porch ran out, they must've decided to move on. I've not seen one since. :(
