Oh Julie, this is a well composed shot of this bathing beauty. You are fast becoming a master at bird photography.
 
Nice one Julie:t: I don't think I have ever seen a Goldfinch having a bath!! Sometimes it is difficult to get close up to these birds before they decide to fly off out of reach of the camera.
