Thanks all ,yes I was stoked to get this one I have seen a few usually they take off the moment I see them but this one and his mate just sat there and let Charlie and I take photos, lots of photos, I only saw them because there was a Noisy Miner sitting on the branch in the photo and the Hobby nearly landed on him I don't know weather he after the Miner or just wanted the high branch, the Miner perched near by and let it be known how annoyed he was. .
It was nice and sunny but there was a bitterly cold breeze and I think thats why he looks fluffed up.
Nice work. I've only ever seen one.

Yay! Lovely photo, they are such stunning birds
Well done
Great capture sparrow, he sure is one fine looking bird. Probably even chillier up where he was too.
