White-Crowned Sparrow

(Zonotrichia leucophrys)

Description:

A windmill driven pump along a stretch of “The Loneliest Road” (Hwy-50) in Nevada caught my attention and I had to turn back to investigate. This pipe, or one like it, has been supplying refreshing water to travelers since the mid-1800s. Aside from this White-Crowned Sparrow, I saw larks, wrens and Chukar during my brief stay there.
