Spotted a sparrow

Its been a long time I spotted a house sparrow around. I remember the time when I used to put out some seed for the sparrows in our portico before going to school.

Though the original sparrow is no more available for clicks in Bangalore, I spotted 2 varieties of the same. An ashy crowned sparrow lark and another sparrow lark. Here they are. Click for larger versions
