This fluffy White crowned sparrow was in the middle of the bushes. I waited till his tail was clear of the oof foreground and this is what I got. A little busy, but I think ok for an environment shot. Cropped about 25% for composition.

Poor little darling looks quite overawed in this jungle Steve!

Good shot of the environment and sweet light.

Steve, excellent critter in habitat, nice exposure as well, if it were not for the OOF FG twig with leaves, the image would have been an excellent one!!, Still very nice!!!

That is some big habitat -- I like the composition. Appears like a leaf may have been between your lens and the sparrow which is coming off a bit distracting around the tail.
