Spotted this tree sparrow in the crab apple tree. Do wish for a little better head turn.

Nice catch, John. Wish you could have gotten a bit higher to cover the whole bg with that fence. Excellent job of exposure against the bright bg.

Good one, John. Nice direct light, almost as if it had its own light shining on it.

Nice feather detail, with a few distractions. Better head turn would have been nice.
