Story

I found this bird blending in with the fantastic architecture of the Castle of the Nazari Sultans in the Garden of the Lions (Palacios Nazaries Patio de los Leones) in Granada, Spain.

Date of sighting

20 Jul 2007

Location

Garden of the Lions Castle of the Nazari Sultans, Granada, Spain
Spanish Sparrow (Passer hispaniolensis)

Species

Passer hispaniolensis (Spanish Sparrow)

He looks like a house

He looks like a house sparrow - grey cheeks, brown shoulders... I was there last week - it's amazing, the sparrows in and out, being as much a depiction of the Glory of God as any intricate carving. I didn't see any spanish sparrows while I was there - would love to have. Great photo though!
