Carduelis chloris
Its twittering and wheezing song, and flash of yellow and green as it flies, make this finch a truly colourful character. Nesting in a garden conifer, or feasting on black sunflower seeds, it is a popular garden visitor, able to take advantage of food in town and city gardens at a time when intensive agriculture has deprived it of many weed seeds in the countryside. Although quite sociable, they may squabble among themselves or with other birds at the bird table.

Très joli ! J'aime beaucoup les couleurs et la pose de cet oiseau. La composition est également très belle, la verdure encadre joliment la photo. Le fond noir mets bien l'oiseau an valeur. Bien joué !

MAGNIFIQUE ! Ce Verdier is merveilleusement bien mis en valeur dans cette composition de qualité. Le contraste du volatile sur le fond noir est super.
Compliments sincères Didier.

Hi Didier,
Beautifully composed/framed picture, I love the way the bird is turned back into the frame. Excellent exposure too considering what looks like strong sunlight. Great detail and excellent colours, a great shot.
Regards,
Adrian

Hi Didier,
An excellent shot on this Greenfinch. The filter sunlight here gives some beautiful colors, and great play of light and shadow. Very well composed and framed. Good detail in the plumage. Looks great

Great pic! I've been chasing a pair of gold finches for a week and haven't had luck. They are such nervous birds! Congrats on a crisp pic of this bird that is very well composed!

Deatils are rich like the colors.

Hello Didier,
Well composed and an excellent POV.
Great color, DOF, and sharpness. I think the black BG adds good impact, really makes the bird standout well.
Very nicely done.

I like the way you framed this shot, changed a fairly good birdie portrait into a very good picture, showing life and the environment.
