OK, amateur ornithologists... Any idea what bird this is?

I have way too many house sparrows in my yard. I call them Feathered Vikings.

Ain't that the truth, lol. I swear every time I turn my back a horde of those empties my feeder. Almost as bad as squirrels. :-)

Nowhere near as bad as squirrels, but the house sparrows drive other birds away. It's ironic that in their native England, their numbers are dwindling. I'd happily ship 'mine' over there to restore the population.

Judging by the hordes that keep plundering my own, my father's, and our neighbours' feeders, they are not an endangered species in Germany. ;-)

I sometimes chase them off to give the other birds a chance. Though I got a very resolute cardinal that doesn't allow those vikings any liberties; and our blackbirds drive even the magpies and red jays off. They are cruise missile fighters. :-)
