Sparrow, from the comfort of the Settee.

My Hosta leaf made it to the pp page, that was a surprise so thank you all so much for the comments and FAV's

I'm beginning to master taking pictures from the comfort of my settee, my first the other day was the Blue Tit, but I think these house Sparrows are beginning to take over.

I must admit I zoomed in a bit to far this time, but you have to be quick as they don't hang around for there photographs to be taken. I have moved the different feeders around on the metal tree, so know I have the seed container in view. I'm looking forward to new birds and won't be happy until I have an eagle or a vulture, dreaming again.

View with the dark background if you can.
Good clear capture, especially through glass, well done.

Excellent shot, I love that you captured his full mouth! I have a hummingbird feeder outside of my office window, from which I have taken several shots. It's a good idea to rotate feeders for your viewing, I will have to give that a try :)

Lovely capture. I see you've got the suet blocks too. My bluetit chicks are going mad for them. I'm having to replace it every 2 days!

Very nice, lovely focus - that's the way to get a shot - from the sofa!

OK the contest is on... let's see who captures an eagle or vulture in our own backyard first. I shall seek a comfy settee and set up the tripod... sure I will ;-)

LOL most of my Bird pics are from the comfy deck chair! And I might just get that Eagle shot as they fly over my house after hunting at Lake Erie, Once saw one with a fish bigger than the bird!! great Sparrow shot( wish they would have all stayed your side of the ocean) they often push out Goldfinches!!

There is no comfortable where the feeders can be see so I haven't tried to capture any birds here as yet. You did this sparrow justice.
