Another Humble... no not Kate Humble but a Humble Sparrow :smile: Perch is a bit 'heavy', taken in my garden.

Canon 20D, 100-400@290, 1/640, f8, iso400, just a very small crop off top and left

All comments appreciated.

Hi Terry,
A potentially tricky exposure situation here which you've handled very well.
The bird stands out very nicely from the darker backdrop.
Well taken.

Shame. Looks like he's had a rough Summer. Got the same scruffy look as Kate too. :biggrin:

I agree with the perch, however the bird is lovely and sharp. The BG helps the bird stand out.

Very nice... you are aware of the perch so I won't mention it (oops I did :biggrin: ), as said the bg helps the bird to stand out nicely.
