House Sparrow
Stealth Sparrows. I almost deleted the thumbnail because the birds didn’t actually register at that size. Fortunately, I opened the image and looked.

House Sparrow
It looked like there were about a dozen sparrows sitting on this fence. Most of them flew off before I got the camera out. I suspect there might be a nest in the bushes next to the fence.
Two of about a dozen sparrows I saw out in front of the office building on a short walk this afternoon.

I’ve got to admit I still get a kick out of editing bird photos in Aviary.

House Sparrow taking wing
Somewhere between 6-12 of them wandering around the brush and open area at the top of the bluffs near the coast. A lot less nervous than the ones I’ve seen in the city. I was able to get a lot closer.

House Sparrow: Super-Blurry on a Wire
Perfect example: I posted this super-blurry photo of a bird on a wire across the street, zoomed optically as far as I could and then just cropped. Within 15 minutes, 4 people had identified it as not just a sparrow, but specifically a house sparrow!
Meanwhile the entry for the horseweed from last week still hasn’t had anyone stop in to confirm or correct the ID.
