Judging by the size of his black patch on his throat and chest, he must be very high ranking?

That bill structure seems different than the House Sparrows we have in the states, I wonder if the New Zealand variety has adapted a bit! Great shot anyhow Rook! Love the lighting and the colors are really vibrant! Thanks for the post!
