We have lost our population of House Sparrows. So it is nice to see one, especially as well photographed as this. .. voted

I can't imagine a better photo Tom. The focus, detail and color is absolutely spot on!! For not being your favorite bird, you really nailed this one!!

Very nice capture , nice detail, love the pose you nailed him in.
Great bokeh which makes your image pop beautifully.

Beautiful clear, sharp shot, Tom. I can't get close enough with my 70-200 with 1.7x teleconverter to even come close to such detail. I'm envious. :)
Best to you,
Dick:)

They are not a great bird to have around. They are bullies. Hundreds are a nightmare.

It may not be your favourite bird, Tom, but you have shown it off beautifully.

I have watched these guys as they come to my feeder - share your sentiment - but they have a beauty of their own - only wish that after so long an association with humans they would be a little less skittish.

Excellent details! Not as spectacular as an eagle, nevertheless they are there, and deserve a photo from time to time. Very well done.
