Another new species



Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father (Mat. 10:29).

Yes, God is a birdwatcher as well. Sparrows were (and still are) very common and overlooked birds, so much so that they were a perfect illustration of how overlooked and ignored God's children can be in this world. However, if God takes note of the loss of a single sparrow, what does that say about how much He watches over and cares for us (Mat. 10:31). Here is a new species of sparrow that visited our backyard; it is a white-crowned sparrow (Zonotrichia leucophrys).
