Woodpecker back in the garden. Bugger flew off before I could get even a single shot. So I took some pictures of the sparrows instead.
Sparrows get overlooked a lot, I guess because they are common and have drab colouring, but I love these little guys. There are almost always a handful of them in the garden, and their sociability lends them a personality that you don’t get with many other birds: they squabble; they chat; they muck about. They’re noisy little bastards, and I feel very much like they are “my” sparrows, for no rational reason.
