This is a #HouseSparrow which I think lives in the loft of my own house.

Portrait of a house sparrow

I've often seen these #birds feeding off something from the underside of #rose #leaves and long suspected that they were feeding off #aphids but I used to think that they only eat #seeds.

House sparrow feeding on something

Here's confirmation that it is indeed feeding on #greenfly. If you've ever watched the film #ABugsLife then you can appreciate how terrifying these #birds would be to tiny #insects.

I like the interplay of #shadow and #sunlight in this #photograph
