Day 4: Black-Chinned Sparrow
5x7, colored pencil on mylar paper - my first attempt on this type of paper - very fun.
This is a female, so she doesn't have the black chin. We only just added this type of sparrow to our list last November, and this is the only photo we have of one. We saw 2-3 of them hiding in some low desert brush on a hillside at Boyce Thompson Arboretum. She may not look like much, but I remember we were really excited to have finally spotted this little sparrow that everyone else except us seems to see! I don't remember much more about them, except that they let us get pretty close, letting us soak them in as if making up for lost time.
