hi group ... I have just temporarily joined your list to ask for some ID help ... I spent last week in Silver Lake, Ohio (near Akron) and spent five days enjoying the fall color and photographing birds at my folk's feeder ... I managed to photograph a Sparrow which I am not sure of its identification ... the images are posted here: http://columbiariverimages.com/Birds/OhioBirds/ohio_unknowns.html any help/comments as to what species the Sparrow is will be appreciated ... I posted this webpage on my local birdlists (Oregon and Washington State) and folks came up with various possibilities ... I would love to hear what you folks have to say. thanks in advance, Lyn Lyn Topinka http://EnglishRiverWebsite.com http://ColumbiaRiverImages.com http://RidgefieldBirds.com ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
