Sind Sparrow (F)-2 (Passer pyrrhonotus)

Here's another image of
this rarity ...

... this individual, too
was feeding
on seeds in
the same reed clump
along with a male
SS and some
Strawberry Finches ...

There was a very strong
chilly breeze ... and
the stalks were swaying
like mad ...
nearly making it
impossible to take a
detailed and sharp
closeup shot ... of
these little wonders ...
( ... smaller than a
House Sparrow )

... soon they flew
away en-bloc ...
... and then ...

there were none ...
( not my line ...)
