Male Chaffinch
Followed this guy for a few minutes, until I got a pose I liked.

This was taken around the same time as the white-tailed male was visiting. The ID forumers reckon it was just normal moult, but I've never seen it before.

A lovely closeup of this handsome male D.

Nicely captured girl.

He is certainly standing tall and proud. Brilliant pose and picture D. White-tail was a great spot and find and we are appreciative to have had the opportunity to see it. Regardless of how it came about with the white tail (lol). TFS D!!!!

A pose worth waiting for |=)| He looks proud to have found the last seed up there (shed roof?). I hope you rewarded him by scattering some more ;)
 
Pretty finch pose and capture. The imperator crown? LOL.
Thank you for the egret comment. Exactly what I like about it.
