Female House Sparrow?
There were five birds chittering in a tree in front of the house. I didn't recognise the calls; yet I have a feeling that they might have been Hse. Sparrows.What do you think?
At the other side of the council estate, a few House Sparrows were posing among the last flowers at the side of the factory.
This picture made me feel as if I'm in my grandmother's house again; those pictures on the wall in the kitchen.
Female House Sparrow, Passer domesticus.
And a male House Sparrow.
While this Female Chaffinch, Fringilla coelebs, visited the garden in the morning, before I left for Bantry.
This Great Tit, Parus major, also came for a bit of breakfast.
.The Pied Wagtails have ben about the house/garden for some weeks now; they will spend the winter hereabouts (mostly) in the cold months to come. As will the Corvids (Jackdaws, Corvus monedula; Rooks, Corvus frugilegus; Hooded Crows, Corvus cornix, and Magpies. Pica pica.)
The Corvids have been here all year but getting photos of such nervous birds is not that easy!
That's brilliant pictures.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Bob.

ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by my blog Yoke - I love your pictures especially the Great Tit, colour is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sharon; I often find it hard to find time for visiting other blogs. Something I really like doing, but you know how difficult it is to find time!
ReplyDeleteIt is funny how we always learn and talk about the colours of near-breeding birds, and yet I think that many bird coluors come to light in autumn/winter, against a more bare background.
