That's a stunner Keith and what an attractive perch it is too. I like how the lichen sits on either side of the sparrow, frames him perfectly. :toast:

That's a cracker Keith. The lichen makes the perch really good and what a background :toast: It looks like you live where they have light too - send some my way!

Incredible nice shot of such a common bird.
Great BG and FG and sharpnes on the bird as a whole.

A cracker! They aren't common in my neck of the woods - I saw my first ones in Yorkshire recently but didn't manage as good a shot as this. There's just something about the colours and tonal range that make this outstanding.
