More Summer Birds

When you look up in the sky in the morning or evening this month, you may have noticed many swifts flying around.  They are Vaux's Swifts, a summer bird in Oregon. 
 
As their name indicates, they are really a speedy bird.
 
 
Here he comes.  He/she is so fast that my camera lens can't focus well.
 
 
Today another summer friend just arrived here in my backyard.
 
"I am a Vesper Sparrow.  I just flown in all the way from Mexico. 
I have a white eye ring and white outer tail feathers."
 
 
"Also, I have pretty streaking front.  Don't mix me up
with an Oregon Junco as my Backyard owner did."
