Incoming Sparrow

For Christmas I got a lead so can fire camera whilst I'm indoors. (My camera doesn't have Wi-Fi capability) The robin went everywhere but this feeder but am lucky to have got these three sparrows, as apparently they are still low in numbers in England

Great timing! Must get the wifi sorted on my camera!

@365anne thank you. One of only 71 taken! Now all packed away blooming blue tits feeding!!!

[Anne]

Haha, that is just typical isnt it?! 71, that's impressive, thank goodness for digital cameras ;-)

gotta make something out if the holly bush, would make for a great ohoto. :-P

[summerfield]

make that photo - damn tablet!

[Catherine]

A lovely photo - love the sparrow in flight. What a great Christmas present.

[JackieR]

@summerfield Most of the hollybush was picked for the photo on Christmas eve!! I can't reach these ones!!

[JackieR]

@megpicatilly Thank you Catherine, also got a flash that goes around the lens!

[Phil Sandford]

Good luck with the Robin Jak. They move so fast.

[JackieR]

@phil_sandford move??? It flitted from bird table to ground, slowly!! Not once did it settle on the nice clean feeder! Well, not until I packed everything away!

[Sally Ings]

Nice to have birds visiting the feeders.

[JackieR]

@salza I do feel privileged!

[Dave]

Great photo, I love my bird feeders and judging by the numbers of sparrows and starlings we get I can't believe they are both on the red list. I recently bought a Camranger so I can fire the camera from my Ipad which also acts as a live view monitor and also means I can sit in the warm and dry while I take photos, sort of cheating I suppose.

[JackieR]

@davemockford technology isn't cheating!!! I don't have IPad, but I know my brother uses his to capture great bird shots. Thank you for favs

Nice shot with the holly bush behind.

I do have a green feeder like this to. Love to watch them feeding.

[Myrna O'Hara]

[JackieR]

Fist year the holly had berries.

[Billy]

Great shot.
Don't see many sparrows nowadays thats for sure

[Gillian Brown]

Nice shot. We see lots of sparrows in our front garden. Sometimes they are very noisy.

@sailingmusic @billygreen @gillian1912 @sdutoit @wendyfrost Thank you all, I know I don't have patience to be a wildlife photographer, was bored after 2 hours! Glad I was sat indoors
