These birds are a king/queen compared to the common "house" sparrow! <br />Really appreciate your comment about the ethnic groups.

We had so many at our house in Tucson and I always loved to see them. I think they were House Sparrows. And I think that's what we have here, but I am unsure of myself. :-) Anyway, they are always welcome. I just wish I was better at identifying all the birds I see! Great post!
