Weaver finch in the blossoms

The common house sparrow or English Sparrow is really a weaver finch native to Eurasia and N. Africa. Its introduction to N. America was a mistake as it drives away our native birds taking away their nesting cavities.

I like the ring of flowers, with the bird amidst it, and the dark green background to set off both elements. Also, the information on this bird.
