Once he'd eaten his fill (see "Feed me, feed me") this sparrow was quite content to let me get up close and personal while he enjoyed a little afternoon rest :-)

Okay...so what did you mix in with the bird feed..fess up. He looks like he's ready for a nap...clear and feather perfect!

That's some lovely detail of a very ordinary animal. You used one of the greatest rules of composition here too. You simplified your image. The subject is clearly visible, but the background is dramatically out of focus. This keeps the viewer from being distracted by unnecessary clutter. the colorful striations in the background help define the subject while the gentle colors soften the feel of the overall work. Nicely done.

We told him to go away... and away he goes, Precious! Gone, gone, gone! Smeagol is free!

Fabulous sparrow shot, the clarity is excellent! He does indeed look quite content, Si, great capture.

Much of the beauty in life is found in people who care.

Sparrows [or sparrers as Mary Poppins used to call them] are my favourite European birds - modest even humble yet brave as lions [little lions perhaps LOL] when need comes and tricky when they feel like it.
Lovely portrait ...
