Thanks a million for your complementary review on this Cock Sparrow & it's fledgling about to be fed.

Comment from avmurray
This is such a sweet photo Susan, and it was new to me that also the male sparrows take part in feeding the little ones. You have indeed captured this well, and the two of them are standing out so well from the green foliage.
Your photo is also sharp showing such clear and well defined details in both birds, and the exposure is very good.
I think you cropped a bit off on the left side, but this also work without cropping, and the birds are well placed off to the right. A truly lovely and well taken photo, and with an excellent DOF.

Annie,
Thanks a million for your complementary review on the Cock House Sparrow feeding his fledgling...yes they are equally involved in feeding the young after they have hatched.

This is a nice interaction to witness. I like your timing with the baby's mouth open waiting to be fed. You caught a good amount of detail of the little one. It's a cute pose!

Comment from Linda Wetzel
This is a wonderful family scene. I love the clarity of the image and the soft lighting that creates such a sheen to the leaves of the tree. The open bill of the fledgling is precious.

From what I have seen I think fledgelings would be happy to be fed by their parents for their entire lives if the parents would put up with it. A very nice shot that shows this behavior quite nicely.

Thanks a million for your great review on the cock Sparrow feeding his newly fledged chick. Yes the fledglings keep on begging long after they can feed them selves.

Interesting notes! This is a wonderful shot of the sparrows! You have timed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

A lovely nature image here Susan of the house sparrow feeding its young, nice capture of the little fledglings beak open ready to take the food. Natural setting and well framed and presented. Thanks for the interesting authors notes. Jo

Such a sweet moment, I like to see this interaction between the father bird and the fledgling, I see the little one is expecting to be fed, how interesting! You are fortunate to be able to witness these interactions. Well composed, this tells the story very well!
