Excellent capture of this little girl. Spot on dof leaving plenty of details in the plumage. The dark, blue background and the perfect colours really sets her off in a very nice way. Nice composition too.

By the way - the new Tamron 200-500 should arrive tomorrow, if I am lucky so all I need now is some high, frosty sky;-).

Cheeky looking little fella! Very sharp, while retaining a sens of softness in the feathers. I think you could crop some of the empty space at the top to emphasize the bird even more.

Beautiful shot of this little Sparrow, Bente. Love the simplicity of the BG so it spotlights the bird. The light is also lovely on the bird. Great job! I hear my very close friends in Danmark always complaining about this time of year and yearn for the light of summer and the best part of summer that I also took part in is the strawberries of Danmark. I truly believe there are no better in the world than there is in Danmark.

Good sharp image of this lady. the composition is good to, well done.

This species is also declining in Australian cities. Several theories have been proposed but nothing conclusive.

Salut Bente!
Beau portrait de cet oiseau qui me semble être plutôt une jeune male. La jeune femelle n'a pas ces plumes noires à la base du cou et sur le menton. À moins que ce soit une variante locale du moineau domestique.
Excellent point de vue et bonne netteté de l'image.
Un bel ouvrage: image et note.
Merci

Hello Bente!
Beautiful portrait of this bird who seems to me to be rather young one Male. The young female has no these black feathers on the base of the neck and on the chin. Unless it is a local variant of the house sparrow.
Excellent point of view and good neatness of the image.
A beautiful work: image and note.
Thank you

Wow Bente, this is sharp. I like the composition and pose a lot. The lighting also needs special mention.

Very well done and thanks for posting

Very lovely pose this little lady gave you - and a fine capture as well - I like the DOF with a neutral background - thanks Bente - and a Merry Christmass to you as well.

Superb capture Bente and nicely isolated with shallow DOF. The detail is excellent. Great note.

Very good capture of this quite common bird. Sharpness and background are just perfect. Your note is very informative and extensive.
Thanks Bente!

You've put this universal bird on a stage, Bente. Not only the pose on the rock, but the photographic quality makes her a star. Background shows a dull day, but clever handling of the light puts her under the sunlights. Kind of shot I'd like to put in the box as well as you do :-).

What a brilliant photo you made here of the sparrow, Bente. Fabulous light to show all the lovely details and colors of the plumage, a wonderful lively eye, and good DOF. Nothing to complain here, it is just very good.
Happy New Year to you and yours.

Bente, perfect job. Nice POV and composition. The BG highlights the bird, which is cute.

Great job.

I have a tender spot for house sparrows, especially those that live in Canada and brave the harsh winter conditions. The details on this bird are so sharp and clear. It is a pleasure to see. The yellow and green lichen is an added bonus. I like how I can see very clearly the bird's claws. (not sure what is the correct term for them). Very well done, Bente. Spring won't be long now.
