Little bird thread...your mission Mr Phelps

It was at one of our local conservatories. I do not think they are sparrows. The crest on the bird to the right I have only seen on a Canary before. Not to saying others could have it though.

Not sure what these are. Canary?

Nice shot looks like sparrows to me are they wild and were was it taken it can be important to the identification of them

I inquired at the conservatory and found out they are Society Finches also known as Bengalese finches.

I agree entirely with the OP. Little birds certainly present a challenge. In the case of this photo of a female Bushtit, it was taken with my very first digital camera, which sported a whopping 3 megapixels and 8 x zoom with no image-stabilization. Those were the days!

Hand-held, no cropping.
