House Sparrows, July 3, 2019

Wild Bird Wednesday and My Corner of the World

male House Sparrow, Pickwick, Tennessee, USA, June 27, 2019

The male House Sparrow, Passer domesticus, has more contrasting colored feathers than the female, and he chose to perch on a post in bright sunlight.

female House Sparrow, Pickwick, Tennessee, USA,  June 27, 2019
The more subdued colored female chose a shady spot. House Sparrows are natives of Europe and Asia, but have been introduced all around the world. (The yellow line is a stripe on the road behind her).

Have a wonderful day!

    Even though they are often overlooked, they do make lovely photos. Nice captures.

    Thanks for making 'My Corner of the World' a success this week!
