Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: Old World Sparrow

I think these are two of my favourite photos - "just" a little House Sparrow male : ) I'm always so happy when I can get a close shot of any bird - so many of them are far, far away and totally out of reach for my little point-and-shoot : )

Took this photo on what must have been the coldest day of winter 2007/2008. This poor little female House Sparrow was so puffed up that she was barely recognizable as a member of that species : )
