I thought I would post a couple more pics of the song birds in my back yard. I seen this young sparrow feeding from it's Mother near the feeder just outside the bay window, about 20 minutes later it flew over to a perch which was only a foot and a half off the ground and fell asleep. So I had to catch that shot as the sun was setting, about 15 minutes after that it flew over to the bird bath, which I refill every day, and I got it drinking the water. One thing I found strange was just after I took the photo of it drinking the mother kept perching next to the chick and would fly into the chick as it would fly a few feet away and then perch again in the same spot and do it again. I'm guessing the mother was afraid of the chick falling in and was trying to push it away from the water, although it's not deep at all the chick has only been flying for a few days now, maybe the mother was just being a mother and keeping it from all harm.
