Description
I was surprised to see this sparrow just sitting there, as I walked down the gravel road out back at work. It didn't fly away when I took the lens cap off or when I raised the camera to my eye. She allowed me to have at her. :)
Not the best of light, but I did what I could.
Thanks for stopping by and for your time.
Have a fabulous Day!
Shari

Oh Shari - what a darling capture! He is a real cutie! Well done my friend... xx
Lovely these little tree sparrows are so different to ours Great shot and all the more so for the difficult light
You sure have a way with birds, you know... and a wonderful talent with the lens cap off. :)
I really like the way you present us this humble sparrow ! Excellent picture, Shari ! Big hugs ♥ ♥
il a l'air très occupé :) très jolie photo !!
Yes usually over here they are away as quick as anything! nice capture. Oh and yes a late congratulations on the 700th ;-)
Very nice Shari, these are one of my fave little birds, they are dying out here in the UK from some genetic disorder :(. we used to have large flocks of them in the city streets, now you will be lucky to see one!
It has a peaceful feel to it. Absolutely wonderful!
compositionally excellent, and oooh the color balance
wonderful capture. nice foto
Nice capture piocture erland
The not so good light, as you said, made this wonderful in colors. Love all your recent bird shots!
he looks a right little character, its been a long while since ive caught a bird shot and i think you,ve caught this one nicely framed bt the tree. all the best, Clint
You have the eye for animals :) no ant mounds :D
I guess this little guy was just waiting for someone to stop by and appreciate his beauty. Great image!
Wonderful photo.
Well caught!
Here in downtown, the sparrows are so thick and exposed to humans so much that sometimes I have to threaten to step on them to make them get out of my way when I walk. But let me take my camera out and they disappear before I can get the lens cap off! This is a lovely shot.
We have many sparrows near me, they are so busy at the moment looking after their young. This is a great shot Shari and of course she trusted you, she knows you love animals and birds :o) take care hugs Jane xx
We have several of these chipping sparrows here too, and yes they are quite fearless! I've gotten about 4 feet from some of them before they've flown. I like the warm tone of this photo! Pretty! :o)
Undoubtedly a precious capture! You are so lucky, I've been trying at this little yellow finch for days... all he does is hop around the dogwood! Argh... Wonderful capture!!! :)
I don't know, whenever I approach one of those hyper sparrows, it takes off like shot from a cannon. You must have the same relationship with birds as Snow White, who would walk through the forest singing and the little avians would come sit on her extended fingers. Anyway, another stellar capture of a demure birdie, superbly contrasted, along with the branches, against the blurred background, Sharilyn.
Excellent capture Shari _/.
Great shot and POV, and well done with the light conditions!
Wonderful bird photo! Reminds me of the old gospel song that goes something like: "His eye is on the sparrow and I know He watches over me"
