Hello on this snowy tuesday - yes!!! - It's realy snowing again - 10 cm this night!
I hope you all can enjoy your day with better weather.

In the last days Bayram (boreocypriensis) had so wonderful and funny bathing goldfinches here and I joked and asked him - if there were all goldfinches in Turkey because I haven't seen a single one this year.
And he said: Yes, they are all in Turkey right now ...

One hour ago when I looked out of my window - guess what I saw - this lovely goldfinch - just arrived back from the holidays in Turkey ;-)
So I dedicate this to Bayram and I hope he - and also you all - will like it.

Carduelis carduelis / Goldfinch / in Turkish Saka / Stieglitz or Distelfink in German.

Hello Sabine,
We also had snow last night and its blowing a cold N. wind. But now the sun has come out and the birds to our feeders and - guess what - I took a shot of a goldfinch! This one is closer than mine with fine colours and details. I shall probably post mine later but not today.
Very nice and thanks for sharing this -and the snow!:((
Best wishes,
Ivan

Hi Sabine,
Beautiful shot, gorgeous colors of this nice tengelic (Hungarian name). I also didn't see them either here in this winter - thanx for letting me know why. :) I'm sure our Friend Bayram will be very happy with this kind and wonderful dedication. Masterful image, congrats.
Best regards aus Ungarn, László

Splendid Goldfinch picture, Sabine.
I love the colours on it.
The image is of high order, technically, and aesthetically very pleasing.
Well done and TFS.

Liebe Sabine,
Ja, sie sind wieder da..ich habe sie auch schon gesehen. Aber noch nicht fotografiert. Da hast Du aber Glück gehabt, so nahe! Das sind wohl von den schönsten Vögeln, die wir in Europa haben und Du hast den Distelfink so gut erwischt. Bravo! Auch hier hat es heute morgen geschneit!
Herzliche Grüsse

Hallo Sabine,
Wundeschöne Foto von sehr buntem Stieglitz scheint ihm was zu interessieren. Augen Kontakt ist immer von Vorteil. Sehr gute Kontrast und schärfe. Feder ist fast einzeln zu sehen.Liebe Grüße Siggi

Hello Sabine,

I was a bit fascinated by this little fellow!
The pointed beak stands strongly in the red face, hehehe...
Excellent details in the plumage, good colour reproduction and a fine 3D effect!
