Song Sparrow
First, I heard the song. Then, I saw the performer.
The song was beautiful.
It was loud and melodic, with well-spaced notes and it had a distinct trill in the end.
I was expecting to see some exotic canary or guest singer from some Caribbean island.
And when I saw the guy it looked rather disappointing. Nothing impressive at all.
It was a sparrow looking sparrow with watery eyes. I think began to cry when he sang.
To be honest with you, I got emotional too listening to the tune.
The name of this performer is Song Sparrow or Melospiza melodia.
It does sounds beautiful – Melospiza melodia, doesn’t it?
