From you notes on the starling, I now know that these sparrows were also introduced from Europe. They are very common in California..

Wow. I sure hope people know how difficult it truly is to capture these guys. They are so darn fast and rarely sit still and you have captured BOTH sitting still! My hat is off to you my dear, fantabulous job! Excellent detail. Well done!

A beautiful shot of these brown sparrows against the other brownish shades. I love birds, and even though these guys aren't flashy, photographing them may require even more skill than the more colorful birds. My admiration once again!

And a contented pair they make too, in your fine and central composition! They look well content and ready for the winter they are experiencing. Exposure and sharpness are good. Nicely done!

Beautiful sharp clear image with soft color. You couldn't ask for a better setting. You wonder what there thinking ,sitting on the slanted perch together with the soft background.

Another lovely pic showing a pair of sparrows enjoying their time under the sun!:)
This is a wonderful shot of nature. You have timed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

It's great that you were able to capture the male and female perched right next to each other! They look like they are enjoying the sunshine. Excellent sharpness and lovely light.

Grace,
A beautiful picture of this pair of House Sparrows sitting beside one another puffed up against the cold bathed in sunshine watching you. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Very nice photograph of two Sparrows perched on a bird house. Natural colors and tones, good focus and nice bokeh in the scene, well balanced and positioned in the frame. Over all, a Very Beautiful Wildlife Photograph, well done!

A nice looking pair all fluffed up in the cold. The slope of the roof they are sitting on gives them a very dynamic spacing. Beautiful colors and a great background.
