They must have had a bad year as I found only two coming to the feeder at Guelph Lake.
Thanks for looking.

A beautiful little sparrow, Karl. Love the color of the bird, and the detail is excellent. A lovely winter scene!

Looks like the new lens is working very well. Have you had a chance to try it with a 1.4X TC?

Really nice image of a very handsome sparrow Karl. Can't tell if the background is snow or clouds but it works either way.

Thanks, Bruce. The two previous postings of Ducks were shot with the 1.4x III. extender on.
It works, will have to try it for BIF when I have a chance.

Thanks Bob. It was kind of not so clean snow.

Nicely framed shot on the perch and details are amazing.

Sweet shot if this brave little sparrow. I like the upward look and the nice feather detail.
