It's pretty hard to see it, but look at the top of the hedge, under the first green light from the left.

I've added a reference link to wikipedia so this spotting can be classified as "identified" ...I love the Travis Tritt billboard in the background :)

Me too, and I took the picture; that's why I ended up putting a note in there about where to spot it in the photo. :-)

I almost didn't notice it. Those guys are lots of places, but they tend to just fade into the background some how. They're usually the ones that make the messy nests in store signs or eat little bits of french frys at your local fast food place.

The bush is a holly bush, the bird is a European House Sparrow.
