Sparrow

Graphite on paper

Doing some bird drawings in the old sketch diary these days. This is a song sparrow, similar to the common house sparrow, of which there are many around these parts. We also have a nest of Red-bellied Woodpeckers in our backyard that we've quite enjoyed watching, and a seldom-seen Gray Catbird who comes to our Grape Hollies every now and then. Will soon post a sketch of an Eastern Starling, several of whom stop by  the front yard sometimes. They're pretty common here in Georgia as well.
