I love House Sparrows. They are so cute. Unfortunately they are declining in many parts of Germany. But still common and in our backyard there are plenty and used to people, so I don't need a blind for them.

Composition, details and eye contact look good. I might lighten the shadows a bit and wish for a lower angle.

I wish for a bit nore room at bottom, and the bird seems to be oversharpened. Nice relaxed pose you got!

Hi Markus,
Very good recommendations above. A little less vegetation wold be preferable......but you did very well with what you had.

I really like the pose,details and light!
