Mr. Cardinal only posed when the light wasn't shining on the window. When it did, he could see me and he flew away.
The sparrows appear to have a nest in a bush under the window. On the grass, this one was well-camouflaged. I increased the contrast in Photoshop so you can see him better.
Another white-throated sparrow posed in a spot where he showed up better.
The mourning doves are not particularly shy.
P.S. Did you see my Great Blue Heron post?
