    These really work, especially the first two which have stunning natural frames.

    The first and second are particularly good Tim.
    A much overlooked species.

    Little cuties, do you ever see Tree Sparrows over your way? I haven't seen any for years.

    Hi Toffeeapple. No, sadly I too haven't seen one in quite some time. Even the House Sparrows are a far from common sight around here. Not rare, of course (nowhere near), but still a long way from as numerous as they once were – Tim
