Caught this little goldfinch on the thistle sock in my back yard this weekend. It's taken through the double-paned sliding door.

I loved the look on his face.

"Excuse me, can't you see I'm trying to eat here?!"

Cute shot, the window glass takes away some the image quality.

"You want a peice of me"...Nice captures although the sharpeness suffered through the glass. I guess if you attempted to get the shot by opening the glass, it would have been too late. Great expression on his face!

Thanks everyone for your comments.

kr88, you're right, this is about 5 feet outside the door. Opening it would definitely have caused it to fly off immediately. They're very skiddish.
