 Sparrow in my hedge in the afternoon sun. Well protected against big birds, cats and human

Auto focus was useless here

Sometimes I think I’d like to live surrounded like that.

You did a great job of focusing on the sparrow with all the surrounding twiggery.

Good control of DOF in the foreground and the background. Nice detail in the bird's feathers.

There he is, nicely camouflaged to protect himself from hajeka's camera.

The vegetation presents a nice, random pattern in which to modestly place a bird. I'm glad to see you celebrate this English sparrow, often disparaged as common or a displacer of native birds but, in my opinion, plucky, cheerful and handsome. If it had been more obviously showcased it wouldn't have the half-hidden charm this one does. Fine image.

Very well protected indeed, a labyrinth of branches.
