Mr. & Mrs. Song Sparrow

Mr. & Mrs. Song Sparrow are frequent visitors to my backyard garden. I usually hear them and then look out to see them perched on the arbor or scurring about the garden. They go from one bed to the other usually covered under the canopy of the perennials. I see them enter the bed, catch glimpses as they go through and then out they emerge at the other end of the bed. They visit many times throughout the day. They are a cousin to the white-throated sparrows nesting in Longwoods hedge.....any little white-throated sparrow babies yet?

You are right, Adele. I bought it at the garden center by the regional. I have it for my clematis plant.
