White-crowned Sparrow

A juvenile of the species.  The youngsters love to race around foraging in our gardens where they just disappear.  This one perched up on an old piece of driftwood near our main pond one evening this summer where I had sufficient separation from the bg to make it stand out a bit.

7Dii, Sigma 150-600 C @ 600 mm, tripod with ballhead and Sidekick, f/8, 1/640, iso 1600, aperture priority, pattern metering, -2/3 EV.  Processed in LR & PS CC.  Cropped to 9.7 MP before resizing.  Taken at 6:55 pm on August 6th.
