Wagga should join that
though not a house sparrow he has.Imo,those little house sparrows are quite pretty,if they weren't flying wild around here they would make a nice aviary addition if we couldn't get them in this country,They're just brown song sparrows

They are indeed a beautifully marked bird. Just have to wait and see if my pair will go to nest, extremely shy birds, next season?
Life in Port Macquarie is the ultimate Aussie sea change lifestyle.

Apparently it is a Dead Sea Sparrow but reckon it is really a "dead" Sea Sparrow.

Some quite nice looking birds there. But yes the "Dead" sea sparrow does look a little dead.
