Common garden varieties 5 - Cheeky (Passer montanus)

Eurasian Tree Sparrow. And yes, whoever it was who commented ... they do seem rounder here than in southern Europe. I'm not sure if they're fatter or if they just fluff up their feathers more ... or both. Either or both would help them survive the cold winters.
