I recognise the male & female sparrows, Pico.
What's the second one - a Dunnock?

Merc, that's not a bird that's a carnival!
What a beauty, what is it?
I want to come to Savannah even more now.

I do believe its just another house sparrow, SG.

I sometimes get finches too when I offer thistle seed.

Not to be picky, Pico, but it doesn't look like a female sparrow.
It looks like a dunnock.
If you have them over there of course.

Damn, that is bloody picky isn't it?
I didn't say before, but beautiful pictures BTW.

You and my best friend. He's a bigger fan of the Blue Deuce. My self, when Bill Elliott "retired", I stayed with the #9, Kasey's my boy. I think Truex is a really good driver, but, the hat was free.

Oh, I was looking at the wrong bird...the one peeking out from the feeder. Its sure looks like a dunnock, doesn't it, but I don't think we have them around here. But who knows, it could be.

Thank you. Sometimes, when it feels like it, my camera can do a good job.

A lickle bit of searching says you do (have dunnocks I mean).
The pic I used is by an American photographer, although available enough that I don't feel guilty for using it.

Given the sharp quality of your photos I imagine you have long periods of waiting?

My quick googling didn't serve me quite as well.

Those were taken through the glass of my back door. I probably took about 20 or 30 pictures and those are the only good ones. When you have a feeder, birds will give you tons of opportunities.

I love these pictures because the birds look so brave for enduring the cold wintry day.

I'm a great fan of the many pictures approach. As Dana and Limey noticed when we went away.

It doesn't work with the Diz cat though - I still only get close ups of his face as he hurries over to see what I am doing. And I doubt it would work with the birdies either. By the time I spot a robin or a bluetit feeding, it would be off before the camera lumbered into being. Do all digital cameras take ages to get a shot or is it just at (my) cheaper end of the market? My camera is pink though

Regular visitors to our garden NOT photographed by me. Yes I know this is cheating but I wanted to share anyway. Bluetit from Wiki, Robin from RSPB (Royal Society for the Protection of Birds) taken by Chris Gomersall. Robins are ubiquitous on Christmas cards here. We always get a shedload of them because the family name is Robinson. Robins on... you see?

Here's a couple of pretty birds...

Sun tanned toes tickling the sand.
Cold drink chillin' in my right hand.
Watching you sleep in the evening light.
Resting up for a long, long night.

'Cause when the sun goes down, we’ll be groovin'.
When the sun goes down, we’ll be feeling all right.
When the sun sinks down, over the water,
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down.
