Great shot. A Goldfinch with attitude! Or is that curiosity? What IS that thing you are pointing at me?
Here is South Arkansas most of the Goldfinches have moved north. Glad you are still seeing them.

It looks like highlights around the edges or a little sharpening halo? Did you shoot with available light or do some flash fill on this one. Detail and exposure are spot on! Nicely done.

I like the pose and eye contact, with nice detail in the bird

He's a cute little thing! Nice shot Larry...I love the nice even lighting...it really shows the color off.

Thanks Roib and Karla.
