Up close and personal

Today I was bailing out the big tank again (you know the drill) as a very determined Lincoln's Sparrow was practically underfoot. Normally, I think of that species as a moist underbrush skulker, difficult to see, but I guess with the drought it has to find lunch wherever it can. Not much moist understory around. Actually, none. (The sparrow is on the tank floor behind my tub.)



Other than that, the next most interesting bird of the day was a juvenile Scissortail Flycatcher. I wasn't able to get even remotely close to it.
