This looks like one of the little guys that beg crumbs from us at work. Such sweet little birds. I love sparrows the best I think.

A lot of sparrows look similar but the ones downtown are House Sparrows, a bird brought over from Europe quite a while back. The Henslow's is subtlety different and is unfortunately in serious decline.

The most notable feature on them is perhaps their greenish head which the poor lighting did not show very well.

Whoa, got to find one of these guys, not seen one yet but been chasing for a couple of years. Nice capture!
