This little guy parked himself on the back of the boat when we took a tour around Lake Powell, Arizona last Thanksgiving and sure seemed to enjoy the ride. It's been a while since I've posted but life has been hectic. So..........thanks for coming by and know that I appreciate you taking the time to do so. Anita

He looks pretty determined to get a free ride, Anita. This is an excellent close up view by the way. The clarity of this little guy with perfect coloring and an undistracting blended background make this a terrific capture......Neil

Lovely and determined sparrow! Bet he thought some cake crumbs would arrive sooner or later! Lovely capture - background just right! Well done.

Nice and close-up...the way I like them Anita. Beautiful detail on this little sparrow. Hope there was a life vest for him...

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

Nice clear photo of the sparrow Anita. When I try to snap them they don't stay still even for a few seconds. Makes a good desktop too.

You know, getting in near the bottom of all these great compliments on a great photo, leaves me at a loss for words. So ditto all of the above, Very good Anita. ;-)
