Linnets and Goldfinches

Had an hour or so walking across the fields today and came across an area which had been set aside for wildlife.

Unfortunately I had only taken my 300mm lens with me as it was overcast, so couldn't make the best of the flocks of small birds in the long undergrowth.

I took a few photos, a couple were clear enough to identify a flock of Linnets, the Goldfinches and Chaffinches were much easier to identify, but I'm sure I heard some Greenfinches and possibly another species. Must go back with the long lens and try for some better photos. :)

Great shots Rolf. Well done :thumbsup:

Yes well spotted rolf, this area set aside for wildlife obviously works, bet you can't wait to go back :D

I can't, fortunately it is only a 20 minute walk from my house, through the woods and up a farmer's track. :) Shame I haven't got my hide yet, as I could have pitched it within yards of the area and got some great shots. :)

Nicee collection of birds in one go Rolf. Well done :thumbsup:

Hey rolf, maybe you should put a hide on your Christmas list to Santa:D

It's already there Babs, that's why I haven't bought one. ;)

:-hide actually I thinkit's a great idea
