Being just a Sparrow isn't really a benefit when it comes to
raise awareness for a species. Tree Sparrows were take for granted way to long.
Still numerous in certain places we overlooked that the species was and is in
trouble. In our modern landscape there simply was no room and suitable habitat
left for the species, meanwhile things look a little brighter for their future.
They are on a comeback in many areas. This encounter with a family of Tree
Sparrows was one of memorable days out in the field. As it was late evening the
ISO was up to 800 sometimes even 1600, fill flash was needed to balance the
light on the birds with the often much brighter background.
