Noon. Tuesday, February 12. Gold finches toward the top (for Valentine's Day, let's say they are a couple); fat sparrow on the bottom.

- Dan Allen lives in Philadelphia's Blue Bell Hill neighborhood. He eats a lot of cheese, drinks a lot of beer, and thinks that you should too. He also loves to write and talk about these and other things pertaining to good food and drink. As much as possible, he follows a locavore life style, meaning that most of what he eats, drinks, and writes about is local to Philadelphia and environs. (By the way, he tends to go on and on about all this, so unless you have a lot of time on your hands, it's best that you not get him started.)

You are right. Gold finches on top but the sparrow looks like a "white-throated" sparrow on the bottom. If it was a larger picture I could say for certain. My eyes are almost 74 years old and don't see small things like they used too.
Happy Valentine's Day to you and to your family.
I also linked your blog to mine. I hope it brings you some traffic. You have a nice blog.
Hi Abe,
Once again, you are right -- according to my Peterson Guide, that is a white-throated sparrow.
And I probably shouldn't have called him fat. It appears that they are just shaped that way. Fortunately, I'm pretty sure sparrows don't read my blog.
Happy Valentine's Day to you and your family as well.
