A very nice set, Lester, and a beautiful bird. I'm always interested to see how your, similarly-named, species vary from our own in North America.

There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.

What a fantastic set! Your goldfinches are just gorgeous with such wonderful color combinations. It is hard to pick a favorite.

Lovely set Lester. The colours are so vibrant and the shots so crisp, love them, esp. #3.
