Title: The little grey bird
Post by: Norty on May 30, 2009, 02:10:45 PM
This "little grey bird" appeared in the back yard one day but I never found out what it is. :-\
I don't think I have it in my bird book. But I still enjoy it because I think it's cute! :)

I do believe it is a sparrow.  Anyone else have any ideas?

Something I learned from another member is to focus on the eyes when photoing a bird,  Just a little tip that I found helpful.

Well done.. Keep that camera clicking you are doing so well.

Thank you! :laugh:
I thought the bird looked like a savanna sparrow, but it seems to colorless. :-\

I would guess it's a sparrow, too.  Yes, they are kind of drab, and this may well be either a female or a juvenile.  Good shot.   :thumbsup:
