*****************************************************

If you could see this sparrow foraging for food you would see quite a show.
It scurries around very quickly from place to place holding its tail up.
Never staying in one spot for more than a few seconds at a time.
It seems to run rather fly from intruders, sort of like a Road Runner does.

Note the predominate white eye ring.

Also the single black spot on its breast.

**************************************************

Also note that the white wing bars are very faint or light.
