Thanks for all the great comments,I'm glad you enjoyed it. This time of the year its hard to tell the males from the females.

Well done, Alex. You can tell it's still cold out - I see his mating plumage hasn't emerged yet - or is this one a female? It's beautiful.

I really like this shot alex. It caught my eye when I first glanced at the thumbnail. The Goldfinch is in a perfect pose whith his head down. The chain and hook add to the composition. Beautiful work! Don

Wonderful clarity and colors. Beautiful catchlight. Are you using a tripod Alex or hand held?

This is a gorgeous image. I agree with everything Steve says. It makes me want to pick the little bird up and take it somewhere warm.

What a great composition, Alex! The cold hard iron against the soft (and hopefully warmer!) feathers gives this shot a textural interest it would not have otherwise.
