Passer montanus
Sparrow-sized and house-sparrow-like bird - even though from far away the two species can be confused, on a closer look they are easily distinguished. The Eurasian Tree Sparrow, presented here, sports chestnut crown (distinguishably grey in House sparrow), bright white cheek, and black ear patch with large black line on throat. Sexes are similar.
Here, seen taking a dust-bath in a large urban park, on an island on Danube, close to center of Budapest.
