Birding since the late 1980s...mid 40s birder. Being out in nature and hearing the morning chorus, seeing how birds interact with their surroundings and go about their lives provides me a greater understanding of the natural environment we live in. With bird photography, every photo is different, which makes seeing the same and different species exciting.

multiple species
To my great surprise while uploading this photo of House Sparrows congregating in a Hibiscus tree, I discovered 10 months later there is another species of Sparrow in the centre of the photo! Not sure what it is - any ideas?

Although I'm not 100% on the id, I believe it's a Monk Parakeet. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
