Here is a Sparrow that I tend to overlook when out shooting. They actually are very striking birds.

Well done, Greg!

Thanks Matthew. That is good to know.
I really had no idea. I can see the difference.
Yours is a lovely bird too, really nice photo.

I was in the same boat too, thought all sparrows were the same, common bird, but eventually discovered they’re a quite varied species. Not as numerous as Warblers, but there’s a good number of cool looking Sparrows.. in particular I hope to someday see a Fox Sparrow.

superb fairywren (Malurus cyaneus)
This poor bird came into my workshop when I had the window open and couldn't find his way out.
I felt bad to see the poor thing flapping about.
I was able to catch him safely and let him free.

Richard, I'm always amazed at how beautiful that bird is.
