House Sparrow (Passer domesticus)

I had a lot of fun watching this guy taking a bath during a hot day here, they were about 5 or 6 birds arround and all of them follow this one.
Temperatures here are in 90's and most of the trees are green by now, probably next summer will be very hot.

Saludos

Hola Primo,

This is one of the cutest Sparrow shots I have seen. He seems to be having a fine time for himself. I love the expression on his face with the slightly opened beak and the wonderful eye. The wet feathers are marvelous. Great timing to capture the action perfectly with fine details and great colors. I love the setting and composition.

You are one of a very few in this world who has gone from 0 to 60 in under 4 seconds....like in the old days we used to measure speed in cars...that is back when we also measured them by horsepower, not metrically. Your work is as if you had in some magical way went from one end to the other....did I miss something here? How much your work has come....it is a man of true heart Luis..an you surely know it!
