Wimbledon Park: House Sparrow

Better in large ("L"). I got pretty close to it!

I visited Wimbledon Park on my way for coffee with my godfather. I was hoping to see the great crested grebes all dressed up for courtship (and perhaps even a dance!), but they were nowhere to be seen... Grrr.
There were quite a few of these tiny house sparrows flitting about which was amusing; they definitely see a face as more threatening than a camera in front of a face, and I could sneak up quite close if I was slow and hid behind my camera (...). The park was busy with people jogging and walking dogs, and passers-by would make the sparrows disperse. They (on more than one occasion) flew right over my shoulders (dodging my head!) which was an amazing experience!

Thank you very much for all the positive feedback on my Escher-esque NHM pic yesterday!
