I Shot the Sheriff, but I Did Not Shoot the Deputy
My bird book says house sparrows are 'declining'.
Here's a 'breeding male' house sparrow--who is doing his part to reverse the decline
as (I think) he's house hunting and carefully inspecting the new bird house in the front yard tree (tips on keeping a bird house from swaying in the wind are welcome).
The bits of green in each image are a welcome sight--spring is on the way and man-oh-man I can't wait

...takes two to tango.
Here's his better half--these house sparrows don't wait around.
Good luck to the happy couple
I can echo what another poster or three said--we've avoided COVID-related catastrophe in our family but I can't wait to get the shots (maybe next week it looks like).
This little corner of the internet has helped keep me (somewhat) sane during the past twelve months...and I feel lucky/guilty/sheepish even saying that because of all of the real suffering that real people have been forced to accept in their lives--all because of COVID.
...now, tell me about that upcoming Canon M6 Mark III!

This happens when a blue and a big tit raise a quarrel. Quite surprising for me, aiming just at the blue tit.
Funnily the big tit disappeared faster than the blue one.
Man, that was a dull day... 1/1000, f/8, ISO 1600 and still I pushed those by +2/3 in pp
