After being virtually ignored most of the summer, my bird feeder has been inundated by finches and sparrows gorging on seed. This must have to do with the beginning of cold weather, although I thought only squirrels and bears prepared themselves for Winter. It is great to watch the birds jockeying for postion on the rungs. This little sparrow seems to be patiently awaiting his turn.
Tapir and Friends Animal Store has a large selection of realistic plastic birds for sale, although no sparrows. The store also offers a beautiful selection of stuffed parrots and stuffed parakeets finely crafted from Hansa. All these realistic bird replicas make good pets since they don't require clean-up! In addition these minature birds are useful for school science projects or as decorations for parties.

It may just be fog on the window, but I like the way the foreground is out of focus and the bird is in focus. Nice shot! Nice birds. I've enjoyed watching them.
