I believe this is what Owd Bob calls the sparrows and I think it's cute.

Took this one today while it was snowing. Have been trying to get a shot of them at this one feeder closer to my window and finally pulled it off.

Used the canon 450D along with the canon ef 70-300mm IS USM lens.

Thanks in advance for your comments and hope you enjoy spuggy!

Love the seed on his beak. That adds reality to a still photo. The browns and tans on the bird too. Nice capture.

It does look like 'chubby spuggy'. I would say this sparrow is well fed during the winter. Fantastic detail & I like the DOF. Excellent work Sandi.

Sandi, In Holland it's called 'huismus'. They will or have already become pretty rare in my country.
This is again a very beautiful shot my friend. Well done.

Sparrows are thick in my part of the world. They hog the feeders. I am glad they are small because the have the Gull dropping trait. This is a good photo Tigz. Clarity is superb.

An absolutely wonderful image Sandi. The little bird is so beautiful and technically the image is wonderful. The focus and DOF are great and the contrast between the feeder and the background works really well.
