Peter, love the natural (not set up) setting of your image! The greens in the background are the perfect accent to set off the gold tones in the sparrow. Great leaning pose and good detail. Well done!

Love the colors and details of this extremely shy and hard to find bird.

Nice shot Peter - but just so you know this is another bird that name has been changed - They dropped Sharp-tailed - Now it is easier to spell out because it is now just Nelson's Sparrow - I got my pictures of these birds on Texas Gulf Coast where they winter. If hit right spots on East coast you also have chance at Saltmarsh Sparrow ( also name changed by dropping Sharp-tailed)
