Savannah Sparrow

[Jim Fenton]

I see these little birds feeding in the mud frequently when photographing shorebirds along some inland beaver ponds and to be honest, I never paid much attention to them.

They are little beauties with really intiguing interactions and personalities!

Jim, Looks a bit over processed on my moniter. Is it a big crop? Bob

500 VR !!!!! Big Congrats Jim !!!! Not many of those around !!!

Just wish you could have captured him away from the sticks and laying flat on the mud !!!! :D:)

Looks a bit contrasty from here. Good pose though, I don't see them by water like this too often. Wish the sticks weren't there.

I like these sparrows, too. The setting is not the prettiest, but there is not much you could have done about it.

You captured a lovely pose in this image Jim and great to see him by the water. I agree with the above comments and look forward to seeing your future posts.

Good composition and exposure Jim. Its a shame that the one branch is blocking his chest..:D
