White-Crowned Sparrow Zonotrichia Leucophrys

WY, Beartooth Hwy

One one of the many campsites along Beartooth Highway (Route 212 between
Tower Junction,WY and Red Lodge, MT which rises close to 11000ft!!!) this
sparrow was eager to feed his kids but didn't want to give the location
of the nest away to the guy with the lens. So I took a few shots of him
posing (and dancing) and let him alone...
