Proud sparrow.

Took this photo in December. We take sparrows for granted, but they are my favourite bird. Full of self confidence and cheek. Several years ago I put up nesting boxes under the eaves of my cottage and now I have several sparrow families in residence.

Put up nesting boxes for your sparrows.

So cute. They're one of my favourites, too, for the same reason. Indomitable, somehow.

I am really starting to appreciate sparrows. I love to watch the english house sparrows that call the trees and shrubs around here home.
