Resident Sparrow

Got home tonight to hear the noisy singing of two sparrows on the roof above our front door. They didn't stop or fly off - they let me open the front door, dump all my stuff in the hall and get my camera out to take some photos.

I was struggling a bit to get them both in focus, I've got several photos of one clear and one blurry so I've given up and gone for just one of them. This photo also shows the blossom on the tree in our front garden which has just flowered after being viciously hacked back by Gary a couple of years ago!

I think this sparrow could be the same as this one I blipped the other day. He seems to be living on our roof and I'm wondering if they've got a nest under the guttering somewhere.

Had a really nice day today - had to drive over to some offices near Didcot so I drove through the Cotswolds - past Broadway, up Fish Hill, through Moreton-in-Marsh, Chipping Norton and Woodstock. Beautiful scenery and lovely sunshine - just couldn't stop to take lots of photos unfortunately!
