I had some Linnets turn up at my feeders the other day, the first ones I've seen anywhere near them, but unfortunately they didn't stay around for very long :frown:

Lovely shot Vince with good detail and colour.

You certainly seem to get great light in Gloucestershire!! Lovely colours on a increasingly less common bird.

Thank you all for the kind feedback to this image,:toast:

Beautiful ain't they but very sad that they are becoming more & more scarce & nervous of us humans. :frown:
