Description


This little Chipping Sparrow banged into French doors during a snowstorm. Shocked and frightened, it sat quietly for a long time before it could fly again.

Linda and John, thanks so much for your comments! I felt bad for this precious wee bird, but happily, it was able to fly away and looked quite sound. :o) #11568220

So glad he recovered, Joanna!! Beautiful capture of the little fellow!! I've found if they hit a window and are stunned if I can just get them on their feet they will eventually come out of it and fly away!! #11568369

Aww, poor wee thing, lucky there wasn't a cat around. Beautifully captured. #11568378

Teresa, I will remember that! Thank you for the kind comments and good advice! :o)

I've been enjoying the many bird images you have in your gallery; this is a lovely little close-up! #11572316

Chris, thank you so much... I'm pleased that you enjoy them! This particular image is very special to me since it was the first time I was able to capture a macro image of a bird. :o) #11572326
