20160329 SERIES - House Sparrow DSC_7007 xxx.jpg

Our Yard

Two images, one of Mrs. House Sparrow and one of Mr. house sparrow

Top image. A female House sparrow on our back fence.

A male house Sparrow giving me the eye and readying for take-off.

We have several dozen House Sparrows residing in our yard and decimating our feeders, but then, they have to eat too. They are actually quite beautiful, but their "chirps" leave something to be desired and they spill a lot of food, but then that provides food for the bottom feeders, including birds, chipmunks, squirrels, mice etc..

1/1600s f/5.6 at 500.0mm iso640 full exif

Two very well captured images. Both very sharp and lovely backgrounds. V

Now I recognize this pair. We have several around here too. Mrs. Sparrow looks very calm and cool while Mr. Sparrow looks a little on guard!

Wonderful images of an ordinary couple.

Best, Bert

Two extraordinarily beautiful photos, especially of the male. And you are so absolutely right in what you say.
