info

I have encountered the white-throated sparrow many times. It is as common there as a sparrow in Poland, maybe to a lesser extent and not in such a large number. The pictures were always taken incidentally, as an aside. I was also able to make a voice recording (see description: Great kiskadee). The white-throated sparrow is found in the Americas. Its wingspan does not exceed 25 centimeters and the body weight is less than 30 grams.
Last minute news - 12/2015
The white-throated sparrow gallery not only was changed by new photos but actually 100% built anew with new images taken in Costa Rica. In the garden of the hotel which I stayed in, where around I was taking photos of resplendent quetzal, white-throated sparrows could be photographed even with short lenses. There were a lot of them and they were not skittish at all. Their posture and behavior resembled me our sparrows and Eurasian tree sparrows. Recording their voice was not a problem also, as they were sitting at a height of 2-3 meters and their voices resounded throughout the entire area. Frankly speaking here should be noted some problems with the recording, I have to mention the noise tourists walking through the park made, which have been carefully cut from the recording.
