Sparrow in hop thicket | Feathered Friends - Show Me A Photo Contest Round 156

Hello, friends.
In the village, in the backyard behind the outbuildings, hops grew. The lashes of this plant entangled an old wild apple tree and turned it into a green ball of intoxication. This place was chosen by sparrows. It seems that birds now live there permanently; at any time of the day there are at least a couple or three sparrows there.

Sparrows sit on hop vines or apple tree branches, animatedly talking to each other. And when potential danger appears, they do not fly away, but dive inside the ball of intoxication, hiding under the green cover. As soon as, in the opinion of the sparrows, the danger has disappeared, the birds reappear on the surface and begin to chirp animatedly.

Last summer, it seems in July, I went to watch these birds for several days and the sparrows got used to me quite well and stopped perceiving me as a danger. Of course, I didn’t come close to the tree, but I didn’t really hide, trying to photograph the birds as best as possible.

Here is the result of photographing one of the sparrows living in an apple tree entangled with hops. At the beginning of photography, the bird was a little wary, but then gradually relaxed and went about its usual business, that is, it began to chirp along with other sparrows.
