Love the Pine Siskins... beautiful shot... Here on the ridge, when I see the siskins, the redpolls are usually with them... hoping they both return soon.

Yes, I like it a lot. She's a little beauty. Then so is your perch.

Very nice composition, detail and BG. Siskins are a bird that must be common in your area of the UK and the area I live in. We get a lot of them here in the winter, but they leave in early spring.

Bro lippy - bad cropping - more space on the head, why would i want to see more on the perch and the Bg colour wont bring the sharpness of the subject i'll wait out fr better lighting :)

peace
