The Lookout

A flock of Sparrows swooped and twittered
about as I left the hardware store.
This little guy sat amid the vines
in the eaves and kept a close eye on me.

Love the picture of the sparrow. Life is every where we look. Around our home we have alot of trees, and lots of sparrows, There are so many variety of colors it is unbelieveable. It is also hard to photograph them, they like to flit around fast.

Nice shot of Sparrow, Sunny. From his point of view you must have looked like a desperado trying to shoot him.

He's most certainly keeping an eye on you !
I've noticed the birds who choose to make their nests above the signs at the drugstores, could be the lights keep them warm ?
Lovely shot !

He's so cute and has a neat spot to look out from. Great shot!

I don't know why he had to keep an eye on you, I've never thought of you as suspicious-looking. I am glad you kept an eye on this guy and got this great picture.

Neat picture, Sunny... I was so excited to see my Song Sparrow this week.. We don't have many sparrows here --at least not in my backyard.

Hugs,
Betsy

it is very hard to shoot a shot in focus through the vines, this one came out good. i like the vines as much as the bird.

That makes a great composition. This is the first winter that I have had where the sparrows are the predominate birds at the feeder. Four squirrels and many birds are just everywhere today.

I love the picture. It is always good to have a camera handy, never know what you may see.

Isn't birdsong just the best music this time of year?

He reminds me of a little sparrow that I saw the other day. He alone one a big pile of snow.
