Passer domesticus (Linnaeus 1758)
House sparrow (inglese)
Moineau domestique (francese)

Ordine Passeriformes
Sottordine Oscines
Famiglia Passeridae
Sottofamiglia Passerinae
Genere Passer

Sull’identificazione sono incerto. Ho inserito delle note relative al passero domestico che in genere sono valide per qualsiasi tipo di passero essendo i comportamenti e gli habitat simili. Il becco è sufficientemente robusto da far pensare ad una femmina di passera d’Italia, ma i colori mi fanno pensare anche al passero domestico.

Il passero domestico o passera europea o passera oltremontana, chiamato più spesso semplicemente passero, è probabilmente l'uccello più diffuso e noto in Italia e in Europa, sia nelle città che nelle campagne.

Lungo 15 cm. Circa, il maschio presenta il vertice scuro, nuca castana, gola nera e guance biancastre. Il piumaggio superiore presenta colorazione grigio brunastra con più castano sulle ali ove è presente anche del bianco sporco. Il becco è nero in estate, bruno giallastro in inverno. La femmina manca del nero sulla gola ed il piumaggio è in genere uniformemente brunastro

Il maschio prepara più nidi, nei posti più disparati ma sempre comodi, sotto le tegole, negli anfratti di edifici e occasionalmente sugli alberi, la paglia è la componete principale dei suoi nidi, che poi imbottisce con piume di altri uccelli, l'ingresso del nido è sempre laterale. La femmina che si farà attirare in uno dei nidi preparati dal maschio, vi deporrà dalle 4 alle 8 uova, come arriva la primavera; la nidiata è svezzata da entrambi i genitori.

Non migra e, in zone abitate, si lascia avvicinare parecchio dalle persone. Vive in stormi anche grandi ed è socievole anche nel periodo di cova.

La fotografia
E’ stata scattata sul fiume Sile. Questa femmina si aggirava nel canneto alla ricerca d’insetti, probabilmente per i piccoli ed era abbastanza confidente da lasciarsi avvicinare. La ripresa è stata fatta con lettura dell’esposizione spot e regolazione manuale di tempi e diaframmi.

Hello Maurizio,

Excellent picture of this female sparrow. This female is going to feed her babies. Beautiful diagonal composition. Great sharpness. Good light and natural colours.
Cheers,

Hellow Maurizio, very good detail captured on this sparrow. You caught him with his breakfast. The pose is good and you've made good use of the space with him on the angled branch. Good use of your depth of field, and great capture of that eye.

Thanks, John

Ottimo scatto "in diagonale"; complimenti.

Ciao e grazie, Emanuele

Hallo Maurizio
Time is little, but I cannot pass without leaving my comment and appreciation for this beautiful photograph. A very elegant bird, presented in a fine manner. Good focus and sharp details. It looks very prim and proper to me. I like the small eye, and the detail of the feathers that show so well. The insect in the bird’s mouth is a definite plus point and adds that extra special touch to this already fine and pleasing image. Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards
Anna

Hello Maurizio,
These are a species i live , for there is a family that lives in my home.
LOvely cpature that shows the sparrow with the feed. The blurred BG and the wonderful light helps focus on the subject well.
The diagonal composition too has worked well.
TFS & Cheers

This is a nice and very well done action shot! Details are very sharp and you chose good composition! I like its pose and this diagonal branch she's on. Well seen!
