    This was taken at my backyard set up last week. I like the icy dogwood branch. All C&Cs are welcome and appreciated.

    Beautiful little bird, nice work. After seeing your wonderful white background I wish for snow in Florida... OK, not really. Interesting color of the perch. Thank you for sharing, Jim.

    Joe you can use that beautiful white sand you have down there for a BG! It would be a lot more comfortable than sitting in the cold.

    Right you are my friend. I can see some more beach chair photography at Ft. Desoto.

    Hi Jim, lovely angled pose, and the colours of the sparrow pop nicely against the white BG. Thats a striking colour for wood.

    Jim that perch is certainly different but blends well with the colour of the bird which as plenty of sharp detail, lovely image.

    Thanks everyone for the comments and suggestions. Stu this dogwood branch turns bright red in the winter time and back to a more regular color in the late spring.
