Sparrow in coloured Pencil on Fabriano Hot Pressed Paper. Photo Ref: Rodney Campbell.

Very cute little chap and a lovely drawing, Glennis. At the moment we have a Willow Tit in my garden and it makes this repetitive single tone whistle which is driving me mad! I think it is looking for a mate. It's a very pretty bird - have you seen one?

I will have to look that one up, never heard of it. Thank you for your comment much appreciated.

You know I have a soft spot for this little bird Glennis, and he's gorgeous! I must have a go at painting my little Sparrow....wouldn't be a patch on this.

Ah, I love little sparrows which are in short supply here nowadays. We have a woodpecker, even a parakeet once, unusual birds and yet no sparrows which used to be so common. Quite worrying really. This little one is a beauty and such a clear photo on the new site isn't it?

A beautifully clear drawing of this pretty little bird Glennis!

Thank you
