It is not too often that I have anything of interest to post from my small 
yard.  However, today as I did some yard work I saw an adult, white-morph 
White-throated Sparrow on the grass.  It then hopped into a shrub, and I 
was unable to call it out again.

However, after I went inside, I kept my eye on the grass and the bush and 
saw the bird re-emerge onto the grass.  It feed in the open under my feeder 
and a various locations on the grass for about 45 minutes.
