Basking

Sparrows seem to be the only birds around these days, and even they are becoming scarce. I saw one this morning literally plopped on the pavement outside our house who didn’t even move until Sahraa was nose-to-nose with it. Didn't have a camera with me, unfortunately.

Resigned, posted earlier:

A very sharp capture, Helen! Have you ever considered putting a bird feeder in your yard.
You would have photo opts all winter.
