Tree Sparrow
Had a flock of about 150 tree sparrows just before christmas,loads of youngsters but not many adults but managed to pick this individual out from the rest!
Maybe a tad tight for some but I like it!!!!


Nikon D300,500F4 AFS/11,TC14E,ISO800,1/250,F6.7,TRIPOD/HIDE


Cheers

Looks ok to me Craig,.
No mush in this one, but maybe a teeny bit off the contast would suit me No big deal though..
Love these fellas.

Nice shot. I don't think it's tight.
I like this one one the barb wire. I tried to get a picture like this in my garden but I did not succeed.

Keep the contrast...the bird just about leaps off the screen! If it was my photo, though, I would get rid of the speck at the end of the bird's beak.

Lovely shot of a lovely bird - don't see them very often.

Hi Craig, agree with the above, lovely shot, the dark green background really makes the bird stand out. Get them on my garden occasionally but have never managed a shot.
