Time flies like a sparrow

The days and weeks seem to be really racing along right now.  It was New Year's Day a fortnight or two ago, wasn't it?  It'll be Easter before I know it.  I suppose I ought to start my Christmas shopping soon.

This was the only photograph I took today.  I don't really know birds but this sparrow looks quite young.  They do like to sit at the top of my tree and sing their little hearts out.
