Everyone seems to be finding Goldfinches lately... except me of course!!

This is so lovely Beryl - he looks so proud of himself sitting up there inspecting his domain. Thanks for showing him to us lass.
 
Thank you Papa Smurf and Delia for you kind comments |=)|

Yes Goldfinch flock in gangs so are easier to spot as are the Long-tailed tits. The problem is trying to find one still long enough to capture.
The Sky was so grey I was lucky.
