Incredible capture Greenie! Everything I look for and expect in bird Photography is checked off! White balance control, eye clarity, DOF, stop action, razor sharp focus and fine placement within the frame are all superbly handled here.
Outstanding shot of a Sparrow. One of the best I have seen here.
Nice work behind your Tonka!
Bravo!!
:-)

Thank you Sange. I appreciate the six stars for this one and your nice observations and comments!

Comment from Joanna Bachman
Lovely buff titanium breast color;and,the charcoal brown dots on the wings,are a good contrast.I,especially,like the highlight on the beak,carried through to the head,which makes the black gem of her eye stand out. The muted greenery,in the background,of course,does the same.
Regards,
Joanna

Sparrows are so common that we almost forget how sweet and lovely they really are, and you have for sure pictured this little lady well. She is so pretty and is posing for you in such lovely way. The light green background, is perfectly softened for the sparrow to stand out in the most excellent way.

Your focus is spot on and sharp showing such clear and well defined details in every part of the bird, and the exposure is perfect.

The format and framing works so well and the sparrow is well placed off to the right. I think this is a truly lovely and well taken photo Grace, and with an excellent DOF.

This is a beautiful look at this sparrow! The wonderful light brings out the details in her feathers which have a nice soft look. Your sharpness is excellent. The soft green background is lovely.

Beautiful little house sparrow, she has offered you a wonderful side profile view, I see good detail in her feathers, face and beak, and a good view of her eye, she is well placed in the frame. This is well focused, the image is clear, exposure is well managed, the colors and tones are natural. Well composed and presented!
