I wanted to capture this bird's good side, since he has something wrong with his left eye. I have some shots of him with his bad eye, but this is definitely more suitable.
Capture is the right word. These little guys don't like to hold still for photos! Very nice shot! Glad he favoured us with his good side. Ha! first today.

He Jim.. do you know that photographers only could take one side of Julio Iglesias because of his hair ; )... I think this bird can sing too and looks much more beautiful with his feathers! Very good high quality photo! Mich
Hey Jim!
Nothing like a good old bird feeder fight to put an eye out! Looks like you got this image just as he was thinking to get out of there! Another super image!

Methinks you have way to much time on your hands when you are waiting to get the good side of a sparrow. Or is it a finch.
Good clear post per usual JimboB.
Great clarity, and the back ground blur is nice. Hey if Mariah Carey only lets the Paparazzi photograph her on the right side of her face, this bird has it's good side also.
You caught him in the perfect time of day too! Wonderful details on our feathery friend, and the lighting is superb! I also like the two tone muted background. Excellent work, Jimbob!
