I thought this was just another song sparrow but in looking him up, I found that the Savanah Sparrow is the only one with the notch in his tail. Taken in Mission, B.C.
Artist Reply: I guess this goes to show you, never overlook what you think is the same, as in this case, I would have lost an opportunity to photograph a bird I had never seen before. Thanks for the compliment and comments Jodi.
