So out came the camera with 70-300mm tameron zoom ...........Perfect! Sit in the garden, watch the birds and take some pics. Especially on lovely sunny days.
One of my first tasks was to identify sparrows and dunnocks!! Then thers the difference between males and females.
So the first pic is a female dunnock. Shes speckly and has a narrower beak than the sparrow. Havent worked out the male yet! LOL.
Thge other three are the male house sparrow. Grey chest, light brown dark brow and black markings on wings a white sort of collar and the grey head tells you its a house sparrow not a tree sparrow. Yhe bill is very stout /Oh and the dunnock used to be a hedge sparrow until they realised that it actually wasnt part of the sparrow family.
Flippin heck and this is just sparrows!!!!!!
