Doesn't that sound like a ubuntu version?

I was in the Dolfinarium, our dutch version of seaworld but a lot smaller.

Anyway, places like that where food is sold and eaten you find house sparrows. Usually mangy little birds that clearly show they live on junkfood. Not this little lady, a healthy looking bird taking a few seconds to enjoy the sun while the whole clan is busy getting the seeds from these plants.

I really like this shot, it's extremely rare for me to find a small bird such as this relaxed enough to display this kind of behaviour.
