Vulnerable

There is a rather large population of House Sparrows living in my neighbourhood. Last week a few young ones visited my garden, but unfortunately one of them became prey to my cat. This little one survived.

Lovely photo, like the pov and the look you have captured here, suits the title nice work Sandra

Hi Sandra, great shot of this once so common kind of bird.
Over here we haven't many of them left.

We still have plenty around - they were nesting in the eaves and nearly got roasted by a blow torch before the painter saw them Nice image by the way - I would crop a little from the left if it were mine.

Lovely shot Sandra, my garden is full of the little chaps the result being I hardly ever take pictures of them

Like this one Sandra, like the green mush too, shame about the other fledgling.

Andy...

I really like this one. The blur adds a bit of extra softness to this fragile bird.

Great stuff.

Like this one very much Sandra. There seem to be hundreds in my garden daily, so no shortage here either.

Love the image and the green f/g adds a little extra something special to a gorgeous,often overlooked little spadge. A pleasure to view.

I like your point of view and the o.o.f grass makes the image even better. Very nice!

Hi Sandra

Ditto the above comments - I like it!

Nice pic Sandra but I am sorry
I think all cats should be ----.....
They have depleted the poulations of more species than any natural predator in this country.
My wife loves them (so we have big probs ! )

A good intimate view of this appealing species.

Interesting view of this little one Sandra but intimate nonetheless. A little more off of the LHS would work in my opinion, shame didn't get a little more eye contact.

nice work.
