A Helpful Sparrow

Quickly hopping sparrows aren't easy to catch in reasonable poses, but this one was very accommodating.

I was able to get a portrait of him against a rock and another facing the water of the harbor.

Sorry: no tail!

OK, I cut his tail off, but have you ever tried to follow a hopping sparrow on a windy pier with the bridge camera equivalent of a 1200mm lens?

Little Sparrows

On a slightly windy day at the “Porto Mediceo” little sparrows tend to come close to you, looking for cover or for food. Fishermen are usually well provided with worms and sometimes they even throw some to the birds.I usually don't carry worms and I have always been quite happy with that, until this morning... (Photos taken on April 26)

Birds

Any help welcome in identifying this bird inside the harbor.I know this one, a sparrow, “passerotto” in Italian.
The lord of this dumpster didn't like my intrusion...
