Lot's of great threads on Hawks, Owls,Eagles and the big guys but if you're like me you have plenty of file images of small birds like: finches, sparrows, wrens, warblers, flycatchers and the like. Thought it might be nice to start an ongoing thread for sharing photos of the little guys.

Here's a House Wren that I didn't expect. I was shooting Cedar Waxwings and a King Fisher from a blind along a small stream when this guy jumped up on a nice perch in decent light.

Anyone else want to share images of songbirds and the like?

Excellent Shot! Very unusual to see them perched. Normally they are hopping around under some bush😉👍👍
Thanks Ralph. There were 5 or 6 of them hopping around on the ground under this tree. One flew up, landed on the branch just long enough for me to grab focus and fire a shot. The shot right after this one was of an empty stick where a towhee used to be. Far more luck than skill in getting this one.
 
Great tit reflection.

Not exactly the most exotic species (they're the single most common bird around here); but photogenic under the right conditions nonetheless.
