Birds in New Jersey 2015

7 February 2015 - a new little sparrow appears

A much smaller, thinner sparrow appeared. It turned out to be a Clay-Coloured Sparrow.
It's so rare in New Jersey that a bird forum person told me to inform my local birding society. Only five have been sighted in
all of New Jersey so far in 2015!



That's the little Clay-Coloured Sparrow, on the right.


A bunch of house sparrows; a white-throated at the back, and little Clay-Coloured at far right.

Goldfinch




15 February 2015 - many birds in winter

Little chickadee


In the worst weather, it is the birds that we like to see more of that often appear: here, two juncos and a white-throated sparrow


No house sparrows.


Ah, there's one. A male house sparrow, sharing the feeder with a white-throated sparrow and a female northern cardinal.
