Capture the Moment--White Throated Sparrow

in #photos6 years ago

I had shared something similar on my previous account. Nature photos, including those with animals, are my favorite. I really enjoy & appreciate them. Those are some of my favorite posts to check out here on Steemit. Unfortunately, I don't really have a talent for taking pics & usually don't think about taking them, except, at the animal shelter. There's a fellow volunteer who is really skilled at taking pics on her phone. She captures these wonderful moments of the cats & dogs. I'm the main volunteer with the kitties, so, am the one to take notes & photos to share with other volunteers & the public. Even though it's not my talent, I'm glad to be able to do it.

I'd like to say I took the photo below. Alas, no, I can't claim credit. It was on my timeline on Facebook. From a subscriber to Birds & Blooms. We used to get that magazine & probably will again. My grandma liked to watch birds & grew flowers. One reason we got that magazine. It reminded me of her. This pic was actually taken by Janelle Pitula of Oswego, Illinois. She began pursuing photography a few years ago. She took this last year & waited a few hours to get just the right shot. It's of a white throated sparrow.
