Oh good. I was chatting to Harris yesterday, and he was saying he still hadn't found his sparrow. I'll pass this on to him.

What a shot of photo of the bird! I feel as if I see the live one in front of me. This photo makes an ordinary sparrow so beautiful that 'commonness' of something should not be equated as easy and cheap. Or this particular photo elevates the ordinary one to be so exquisitely beautiful to some eyes?!
