At this time of year it is not unusual to come upon a large flock of sparrows poking around in a patch of weeds and they are often reluctant to move very far. That was the case here where I disturbed a group of them who then went to the top of this fence and glared at me until I had gone by and they could resume their foraging.

A common behaviour here too.
ReplyDeleteThe sparrows are on the move. They came to visit me this morning.
ReplyDelete...as they say, birds of a feather flock together.
ReplyDeleteThey are nice birds.
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteIt is pretty view, seeing them lined up in a row on the fence.
Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, enjoy your weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
The gang is all there. :)
ReplyDeleteI had an encounter with a flock of birds yesterday too. They scattered to a nearby tree and waited for me to make my way past.
ReplyDeleteThey don't seem to be very scared of you! How neat to see so many!
ReplyDeleteSparrows are fun to watch. We have had a flock foraging on our deck for the past few days. At least they held still on the fence for your photo.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of sparrows. Thanks for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteIndeed a common sight also here in Holland.
ReplyDeleteA nice congregation! Sparrows are rarely seen here due to the increase in Rock Pigeon population.
