Bullfinch

Another visitor coming for the sunflower hearts, they are well worth their money. Not great lighting but I think the shot came out okay:)

Wow. I have never seen one of these .
Excellent capture. :)

very pretty birds you have in UK

Lovely shot Babs, haven't seen one in my garden for a couple of years. :)

Thankyou, Chocky, Sitereh and rolf, they only visit from time to time, they bring a lot of colour to the garden:)

stunning shot babs, do you not get the female coming aswell?. if you see a bullfinch, odds on the female will be close by. they constantly keep in contact with each other with their nasal call.
my auntie still has a bullfinch ornament on her sideboard which i can remember as a small boy, some forty odd years ago. so i've always liked them.:)

Thanks andy, yes actually the female appeared first but she was not as brave as the male and didn't come in as close, I do have some pics of her but not as good as the male ones:)

What a beautiful bird. Nic shot :)

Great shot.
