Phriday Photo – White-crowned Sparrow (with a Brown Crown)
The White-crowned Sparrows with brown crowns (aka, 1st year birds), always seem to be a bit more bold than those with the sharp white and black crowns.
Digiscoped with our sweet Swarovski 80 HD spotting scope and “old reliable” the Canon Rebel XTi.

Amazing image quality, so sharp, nice creamy background.
May I know why this bird called “1st year birds”, a juvenile one year old bird?

Very nice digiscoped image. I’ll keep an eye out now; I’ve never seen a white-crowned with brown vs. black. Thanks for the info.
