"Bathing Beauty" White-throated Sparrow

            A familiar backyard winter bird across most of the eastern and southern United State, the White-throated Sparrow is also a widespread boreal breeding species. It is almost synonymous with the peaceful expanse of Canada's remote boreal woodlands and its song is practically an anthem for the boreal region's unspoiled wilderness. Although many Americans render its familiar song as "Oh Sam Peabody Peabody Peabody," Canadians often think of it as "Pure Sweet Canada, Canada, Canada." (borealbirds.org)  I saw this delightful little sparrow splashing around in this beautiful puddle surrounded by the colorful leaves in Central Park, New York City, New York!
