White-crowned sparrows visit my yard and ground feed almost everyday. <br/><br/>On the other hand, Cardinals are a common bird in the U.S., but I never see them because they don't make it to the west coast. I am always so jealous when I see beautiful pictures from others of bright red cardinals!<br/><br/>What is common in one place may be so rare in another. Thanks for the great article; I enjoyed reading it. It’s really fascinating to consider how certain common birds that I see everyday in my backyard are so rare in other places!

Interesting and attractive blog you have here!
The name White-Crowned Sparrow jumped at me, as we have one in England this year - very very unusual and it’s attracted many birders.
