House Sparrow with chicks

Another House Sparrow image on Saguaro. Wish I didn't have the TC mounted so I could have gotten the entire adult.

What a lovely nest and nice light you had here. Even with the TC, it's a pretty cool capture with all 3 but the full adult would have been a winner.

I like the interaction here, too bad that mom got clipped. details look a bit coarse and grainy.

nice avatar BTW. I see one happy man with his 500!

Great shot Ian.
Excellent interaction captured.
Nice details and to bad about the parent being clipped.
Still a great shot.
Well done.

Hey Ian. When did you pick up your 500; you were a 400mm f/5.6 guy as I remember. Excellent interaction shot. I agree with the comments above and would add that there appears to be a bit of a magenta cast to the frame. A little magenta/green slider work should fix it.
