Caught this little one enjoying the seeds on the ground below the feeder.

Used the Canon 450D, with the canon 70-300 IS USM lens, then ran it though NX2.

Have a good Friday, and thank you for your comments.

My thoughts are with our friends Stan, Cindy, and Owd Timer, it shows us that you just never know what lies in store for any of us, good or bad.

Excellent shot Sandi - although the sparrow is so small you have got a really sharp focus on the bird. The colours are lovely too.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

Excellent shot of the sparrow Tigz. I like shots that show them in their environment. It is more difficult to get a shot like this then one at the zoo. Have a good weekend.

Didn't know sparrows were this colorful. You must have a different variety up there. Ours down here are plain.

Sweet capture of this little fellow, with excellent details and markings, Sandi! I really like the blue caste to the snow as well! My thoughts are with our good friends too.. I do hope they are improving!
