Bully for you

Bully for you (Pyrrhula pyrrhula)

This one's for Delia, who says she has trouble getting shots of these. You're welcome to come visit our cabin, Delia. The Trondheim airport is just minutes away, and I can pretty much guarantee you bullfinches. Oh, and for Ove who thought Madam Bull might object to her caption ... I doubt that. The two Bull families in Norway are quite renowned. I could ask my neighbor Ida Bull (historian) whether she'd object ;) I'll post more "Bull" images later and name them for other family members, like Ole (violinist) and Edvard (sr. and jr., historians).

LOL I feel like Ove Bull after your explanation of this famous Norwegian family name,Doc!! ;); I like this image of another proud family member enjoying a beautiful setting in Hell.....Lol
 
Lovely dappled light for Mr Bully, nicely captured DD...Mavis and Throstle are just old fashioned nicknames for the Song Thrush.
 
A beautiful Bullfinch image, Doc! Lovely setting! Hell in Norway looks very pretty. :)
