This is a male and it seems to be a hybrid to the Italian and the Spanish House Sparrow. I thought it looked nice sitting on that wall.

This house sparrow matches the background perfectly. The color of the bird equals the color of the tiles and wall. Even the pieces of bread provided by the housewife. The colors of Morocco I´d say. :)

This Kestrel did not really want to cooperate, did it? It seems like this is a bird that lives in almsot all parts of the world.
