Goldfinch; Carduelis carduelis
Well it's still winter here in Holland and I keep enjoying it every
day! Only problem is it's mostly dull weather with thick clouds, but
when the sun peeps through the real colors show up!

Fraai, Michel!
Inderdaad wel heel weinig licht de laatste dagen. Maar daar is op deze foto weinig van te merken!

Amazing!
All the Goldfinch that I have been feeding up all summer have now left for continental Europe. I hope they come back in spring.

A beautiful bird.
Goldfinches are fairly common on the thistles here in England and are difficult to get close to. Excellent picture and very well done.
Best wishes from Bill Flitney.

Ooh!! Een van mijn favorieten!! Wat een prachtige opname! Helaas heb ik het ene puttertje dat vorig jaar op de oprit zat dit jaar niet terug gezien (en dat terwijl ik alle kaardebollen had laten staan, Ondankbaar ding :-)
Prachtige met die ronde bevroren zaadbollen.
