not sure about this fellow

Saw this one through my study window (hence the mistiness)

It looks like a Mal House Sparrow

Yep, definitely a male House Sparrow.

Thanks, I wasn't sure because we have not any sparrows round for quite a while

It's so amazing (and sad) that you can make that comment. It was only a decade ago that I regularly had 40 or so hanging around my house, now it's more like 10 to 15.... and that's with me feeding them. It's so sad that so many of our birds are declining.
