I'm thinking Chickadee?? Finches ? Warblers??

I took these pictures out of the dental chair while at the dentist,, the sun was a problem so I didn't have a choice in the direction of the shot,, I tried to clear the pictures as well as I could, why the view was a courtyard ( glass wall) for patients to view, there were many many birds there,, I was in awe,!! grin

House Sparrows. Imported from the U.K. along with Starlings and Pigeons in the late 19th Century. These three species have taken over the U.S., Canada, and South America, much to the DEVASTATION of many NATIVE New World species. That being said, they sure are CUTE and pretty. I have a flock of about 60 that live in my yard all year and give birth to HUNDREDS of young every spring. I had a picture of TWO that I took this week that have been posted to the GBBC Gallery.
