World sparrow day

[Anand Madabhushi]

Nice eye contact and catch lite. The bird has carefully managed the perch....between two sharp thorns.

I grew up semi-urban areas with these birds chirping around. In the last few years I have been missing them. Nice to see this image.

Beneath the photograph of a sparrow looking out from inside the gap of bricks and slabs,written are these words:

"When you wake up to read these lines notice whether you hear a sparrow chirping outside your window.The absence of sparrows might not be of any importance for most but these little birds are screaming long for attention.Our lensman spots one on the World Sparrow Day with the hope to help them.On Tuesday.Sailendra Mal"

These words are touching.
