sparrow

He seemed as interested in me, as I was him. I will use this shot as a reference for a painting soon.

[Brian Buccigrossi]

Beautifully captured.

[Janice]

Of course he's interested in you! - - or he's just trying to show his best profile... Great photo.

[Rick Schies]

Good close-up. Will make a nice painting.

[wendy chapman]

Margaret, we are on the same wave length. I took pictures of birds on my feeder this morning. Isn't that funny. Cute little guy.

[waitingforinstant(kari)]

He's adorable. I love that they pay attention to us. Wonderful capture. Will we see a picture of the painting?

[Diana Horn]

Great shot. Looks like the bird is waiting for you to make the first move.

[molizard]

Sweet capture! Wish all birds would be this cooperative! Nice!

[Maggie]

He's looking right at you! Love the nice focus you go on this!

[Margaret Tryon]

@bribuccigrossi @phxjanice @digitalrn @justkariherself @molizard @lovelyrita_mm
Thank you for the kind words. I just noticed I uploaded the wrong picture. I had edited out the bird poop. Well, it's part of the picture now. :-)

[Margaret Tryon]

@wac We do like the same type of shots. I love that. I look at yours for inspiration. :-)

[Pamela Mandeville]

Really nice shot!

[Ellen Chasse]

Wow that is a super shot Margaret!!

[Danielle]

This is such a great capture...I love the bird's expression. Sweet picture.

[molizard]

@maggie2 I was going to comment on the bird poop in a fun way but was afraid it would be taken wrong. If he didn't have such pretty, pearly, pink feet, my eyes wouldn't have noticed. Nice shot! Don't change it!

[Margaret Tryon]

@molizard I wouldn't have been offended. I laughed when I noticed the shot I put up. My husband said change it. Nay, it's up there now. So I post pictures of poop now.

[Santosh Namby Chandran]

very interesting shot.... love the look he is giving....

[wendy chapman]

@maggie2 Thanks. We inspire each other.

[Miriam S]

Very nice capture - so small yet so swift & here he is willing to pose!

[Alecio]

Oh how cute!

[Katrina Cristy]

He is beautiful and seems to love the limelight! :)

[Boaz Bar - Adon]

great shot, I couldn't imagine they have such expression

[Yoella Offir]

He is so cute. We have many of them here but they are so restless and jumpy ( like the people here I guess) and I could not catch a proper picture of them.

[Marinade Spatula]

Nice - love the softness of the grey feathers and how they meet the wings.

[Robin]

Very cute shot. Great capture. A bit different from our sparrows.

[Fiona Kierans Dunne]

Lovely capture :)

[Emme]

Really cute!! I'm sure your painting will be lovely!

[Pyrrhula]

We call those a `` mus``. very nice pic . waiting for your painting

[Anastasia]

Beautiful capture!

[Julie Ryan]

nice picture! "His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me." that went through my head as soon as I saw the picture. sweet little bird.

[Lisa Fischer]

He does have his eye on you! Nice capture

[Annie Charalambous]

That's cute!

[FaerieMoon]

Really nice close-up! He does look very curious (:

[Margaret Tryon]

@ellen @luxvivens @gill Thanks for the kind words.
Gill four sparrows landed right next to me and didn't seem to be afraid at all. I loved it.

[Ellen E]

I can totally relate to the excitement! Maybe you can post a photograph of the painting. :)

[Margaret Tryon]

@ellen Thank you Ellen. I will.
