Larry's Gallery:   House Sparrow (2/7)

PASSERIFORMES: Passeridae

Passer domesticus  

I am friendly with the sparrow
Though his mind is rather narrow
And his manners--well, the less we say the better.
But as day begins to peep,
When I hear his cheery "Cheep"
I am ready to admit I am his debtor

C J Dennis (1876-1938) - from "Bird Song"
