Sparrows

Some more pics of Sparrows in the garden today, taken through double glazing. The Sparrows are not to difficult to photograph provided they are not glued to one of the feeders, which I don't like to include in my images. They don't seem to mind the clicks and beeps and even the sight of my long lens but other birds, like Robins and Bluetits are off like a shot before I can even focus on them.

These were all shot at f5.6 and ISO 1600

Re: Sparrows

Great detail in the feathers - they look really good for 1600.

Are they the full shot or a crop ?

I think they are great for ISO 1600 and the only noise reduction was in camera, set to standard. They are cropped slightly and resized 30% of the original full size.
