Finally!

I have been trying to photograph these White-throated Sparrows for days, but they Do. Not. Sit. Still. Not even briefly. They’re worse than Chickadees! In our house, these are known as Oh Canada birds, as their song is a high, pretty whistle that sounds like “Ohhhhh Canada Canada Canada”. Anyway, I was pleased to get a fairly clear capture. Isn’t that yellow eyeshadow something else?

Congratulations on capturing this guy. I've had a similar experience with them except ,in my case, they do sometimes sit still for a bit but it's only when they are in high grass that obscures most of their body. You've got a great shot here.
