Thanks, Stevano. Eurasian Tree Sparrow looks very similar.
So beautiful, in indonesia has one of the same genus, Passer Montanus.

Thanks, alice. :)
Pretty Sparrow!
Yup! A nice variant of sparrow. :)
That's a good-lookin' sparrow!
Right, Kerry. At first sight they might even be mistaken as house sparrows. Thanks.
What a lovely little sparrow Harsha. More colourful than our common house sparrows in Australia.
