Amending the bird's name in my "Spring Garden #12.

[Cliff Kelly]

I identified the bird in this image as an Immature American Robin, but after closer examination of certain features of the bird and discussion with interested parties and referencing more fully my reference materials I am convinced that the bird is, in fact, the Fox Sparrow. I have not seen this bird before anor have I potographed it but it matches all the descriptive information I have and even though it resembles the Immature Robin - and is certainly as large as a Robin - I think it is this largest of sparrows. (I will check with Simon as soon as I can) .
