House Finch I

A break from the Eagles.  I went out to my blind yesterday and there were quite a few House Finches using the feeders and posing more or less cooperatively.  I'm always fascinated by the variations in the plumage within this species, so I thought I'd post a selection of them.

7DII, Sigma 150-600 C @ 600 mm, Jobu gimbal mounted to blind window, f/8, 1/2000, iso 1250, Aperture priority, pattern metering.  Processed in LR5 & CS6.  Slight crop for composition (18.5 MP before resizing).  Taken December 4th at 10:16 AM with some sun filtering through the trees onto the perch.

Comments and criticisms are always appreciated.

Thanks,
