Beautiful pictures!
Fabulous Shot,
It is Interesting to know that, "The White-crowned Sparrow is known for its natural alertness mechanism, which allows it to stay awake for up to two weeks during migration.[6] This effect has been studied for possible human applications, such as shift-work drowsiness or truck driving." - wiki
B'ful capture. Few days back I had seen this species in Irvine.
