Hi Guy

If a 'record' shot is all that is on offer you might as well do the best job you can - great quality in your execution of this image. Good work.

Cheers,
Chris

It ticks all the boxes for me Guy. Brilliant looking Finch. One that sticks in my memory from childhood when a local neighbour kept these along with all the other Finches you could think off. :toast:
