Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Vesper Sparrow, Pooecetes gramineus, nestlings begging in nest. These nestlings are fairly young; they still have fluffy white down, but when they get older they will grow in grayer down, and then, eventually grow in a full set of feathers! Vesper Sparrows nest on the ground in grasslands.
NOTE: This nest was photographed as part of a nest monitoring project in the oil fields of Alberta, Canada by a professional trained in viewing sensitive nests and minimizing the disturbance to the birds and the surrounding vegetation. Photographing nests simply to "snap a cute pic" can expose them to predators and disrupt the feeding and care of nestlings! |
