Chipping Sparrows are one of the most common birds in North America. They are named after their trilling songs or calls, which consist of fast chipping sounds produced at high notes.
Yesterday was a cold and windy day, with a somber mood coincidentally reflecting the tragic events in Paris the day before. A Chipping Sparrow perched on our yellow magnolia tree, giving me ample time to take the following photos.

Lovely pictures! The Sparrow seems to be a little “fluffed up” for the cold weather.

It was fluffed up, perhaps because of the strong wind. Thanks for commenting Tiny.
