366 MEME - Day 44 - "Moving House"

[debris4spike]

As I was doing the washing up after lunch I was watching Mum and Dad's neighbours moving house ... or maybe I should say choosing their new home!



Don't ask me what type of bird this one is!!

Toni would tell you - I classify most birds into small, medium and large - Love them, but haven't a clue what they are.

I have to admit that I have no idea either - but it is a really neat picture!

Thanks - I'm being told by others it's a hedge sparrow.

Looks like a sparrow to me. Small with grey and brown feathers? They are pretty common world wide.

[debris4spike]

Yes - think you must have it.

btw - I remember that you quoted some Texan words - well Mum always talks about Spadgers instead of Sparrows!

It's a hedge sparrow - we get lots of the different types of sparrow in our garden :)

Awwww its a widdle house sparrow :) Theys funny to watch when theres a group of em, always a mini war goin on within the ranks :P

[debris4spike]

There was a "bit" of a debate going on here!!

[tamakin.livejournal.com]

Hehehehe yeah :) But yup id put good money on it being a house sparrow. Hedge sparrow is another name for dunnocks, which arent actually sparrows at all heh. And the only other type of sparrow in england is the tree sparrow, which is uber rare. Its confussin alrighty!

As I told someone else I am hopeless with the names of birds ... big birds and little birds is a great classification - IMHO!
