Lazy Bird

I couldn't believe my eyes when I spotted this bird lying on the base of our birdfeeder.

The cups on this feeder hold dried mealworms.  I suspect this fellow ate his fill and needed a few moments to digest his lunch before moving on.  

I'd never seen a bird in this position except when on its nest.  Too funny!!

Maybe the bird wanted to make this feeder her nest! I've never seen a bird with that coloring. I wonder what kind it is??

SARIE: A laugh is a good thing anyday and anytime. I'm glad I delivered one to you with this blog post.

STEPH: I thought it was a sparrow but its markings and colors are pretty cool aren't they? Now I'm wondering!

STEPH (again): On second thought, I think it's a finch.
