Vesper Sparrow (Pooecetes gramineus)

I photographed this Vesper Sparrow in the grasslands near Sunrise Lake in the White Mountains, which is an excellent place to see them side by side with the Savannah Sparrow.  The Vesper Sparrow's song is one of my favorites to listen too, and is very peaceful whenever walking through any White Mountain grassland during the summer.

Photographed at Veteran's Oasis Park in Chandler, AZ..
