In the shadows (Fringilla coelebs)

It was rather tricky taking pictures really as I was standing in full sun and the feeders were in dappled light, some of it dark and bits really bright.

I had to play about with this image, as she was very dark and the feeder was over-exposed. Mmmm.... well at least you can see her I think!
