Well, more happy accidents then!
Jimmie - That's called a "happy accident". But remember, the harder you work, the happier your accidents.
Thanks! The first shot was actually taken at a much higher ISO -- completely by accident! I didn't check the camera settings from the previous use. When I saw the bird, I clicked a few shots and this was one of them. If the ISO had been lower, I likely would have gotten a much blurrier version.
Wow! the sparrow seems to be levitating in the first pic!
