Goldfinch!
Really pleased to get this as it's my first decent Goldfinch and it was a grab shot really. Only managed 4 frames of Goldfinch shots ever and this is my 4th... BG is a brown hedge.

Comments appreciated - major nit will be lack of tail i suspect.

techs:
1d2, 500/4is + 1.4x, 1/250th, f10, iso200, -0.67, tripod, baghide

Nice shot Graeme.

Love that BG and detail on the head :cool:

You have commented on the nit(but that does'nt really bother me).

And four more than me too... you have covered the only nit, other than that well processed and detailed with the bird a nice size in the frame (for me at least), with a great bg...
