we calls 'em ENGLISH sparrows over here.. they are frequent visitors to
the fire escape outside my window. They hang with the pigeons. I'm
surprised to hear Rick ask who he is - as they frequent his neighborhood
as well. Now I suspect he will find them everywhere.. :-)

It's a male British House Sparrow, Passer domesticus. Generally regarded as a
pest in the USA. Was once one of the most common birds here but it getting to
be substantially rarer. Send it back home.

Very nice Collin! I’m impressed with the sharpness after the cropping, and the DOF is used very well.
What sort of bird is it?

Wanted to go to my favorite city park to shoot today because, as so rarely
happens on a central Ohio winter day, the sun came out. I parked at the first
open trail and there was this bunch of fat birds working to survive the winter.
This crop is about 1/9 the original. It’s just a square out of the center.

I shot about 30 images but too many had bush branches in the way.
A cardinal pair came by for a visit but they were too skittish when I started
to move with the camera.
K-1, F\* 300/4.5
Next time I’ll remember the polarizing filter. But even so this isn’t too bad.
Ann San wanted to go to this park many years ago but wasn’t able to stop in
Columbus. I used to shoot a lot here. It’s area is > 1 section, so not too much
different area than Central Park. We just have statues, hawkers, or hookers.
