Description
"Singing In The Rain" by Debbie Oppermann. While vacationing at the Key River Ontario Canada, this small brown Song Sparrow, Melospiza melodia, entertained us with its beautiful cheerful tunes all day, every day regardless of weather. This capture reminded me of the Gene Kelly song "Singing In The Rain." It had rained all day but that didn't stop this songbird from proclaiming its happiness to all who would listen. The songs are clear, crisp, precise and one bird may know many songs and as many as 20 different tunes with as many as 1000 improvised variations on a basic theme and I think that week we may have heard them all!
