Finches and Buntings - The House Sparrow

First seen on Wednesday 17th July 2019 at Wallington

Another very familiar visitor to most garden feeders. However, they also like lingering around the cafes and various buildings. They can often be seen looking around the house martin nests (probably looking for insects). However, The one below looks to have young in the nest that he is feeding. The male is a contrasting chestnut and grey. The female is an all-over brown - both are lined up in the second photo of a little bit of Wallington Hall.
