Coincidental Juxtaposition

A flash of yellow in a flock of House Sparrows caught my eye in the Nethermead. The bird quickly flew back down to the ground from its temporary perch. Melopsittacus undulatus, no? The same day I saw four Red-tailed hawks kettling above the Lake. Later, one flew low over the Nethermead. And then later still, another flew across the Long Meadow and landed on this fence. Could have been six different birds, since hawks are moving now.
