"First time I have seen
five sparrows there at one time, OK, they're pretty boring, but five is still
five: White-crowned, Golden-crowned, Fox, Song, and House."

common birds are certainly NOT boring! the white-crowned and song
sparrows are helping me get my doctorate, and i find these sweet
little "brown jobs" to be fascinating!

by the way, house (english) sparrows are in a completely different
avian family than the others that you mentioned ....
