Good morning, now I have holidays and the hectic of the last weeks is forgotten ;-)

It's time to show again a shot - I hope you will like my little "Indian" with the nice feather on his head ;-)
It's a furious bullfinch (male). In Germany we call it Gimpel or Dompfaff.

Thanks for any words, have a wonderful day.

Hi Sabine.
This bullfinch be truly a nobly coloured bird.You be him captured very well,I like his position and also beautiful sharp details on his plumage.Colours are splendid and very nice blurry background too.Beautiful composition with very good angle look.
Great work,thanks!
Greetings Milos

Great capture of the Gimpel singing! It is very humour as it looks like it's gearing up for a fight! DOF and colour depth work well in your photo.

Hallo Sabine,
A lovely but angry guy here. I wish good luck for its wife :). A very nice capture. You have done it very well, like everytime.
Grüsse aus Bursa.

Hi Sabine

I assume he was in you feeder and you disturbed him. I would be furious too, if you distubed my meal (if I was abird that is).

Nice pose and good sharpness and composition.

Nice catch Sabine with wonderful colors, accurate point of view and good focus (perhaps something soft in some areas).
Y like the background achieved with very good takeoff of the bird.
Appropriate framing complete an interesting presentation.
Regards and my best wishes... Ricardo

Hello Sabine,
What a funny guy! Wonder what he's trying to say..?
The feather coat comes through so well, great details and fine natural colours...
Well composed presentation, and the name in Norwegian is Dompapp...
Greetings,
Pablo -

Very cute and quite amusing - I do like the little feather on his head. Since you shot at ISO 800, I assume the light was not very good - so good job on the sharpness under the circumstances.

Hi
Beautiful shot. In Polish the name of the bird is GIL :-)
Best wishes
Krzysztof

Hello Sabine,
Wonderful bird capture.Vivid colors,POV,clear details,pose of bird,catchlight in eyes and composition are excellent.Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
TFS...:-)

Hallo Sabine,
wie schön, dass Du Urlaub hast. Ich befürchte nur, dass sich der Stress verlagert hat. Jetzt ist Weihnachten und Verwandschaft angesagt....grins... Den Gimpel (hier das Männchen) sehe ich leider nur ganz selten. Darum meinen Glückwunsch. Gute Schärfe, Blickwinkel und sehr schöne Farben. Dieses Mal hast Du keinen Blitz benutzt (finde ich auch gut) Somit wirkt dieses Foto sehr natürlich. Er scheint sich mit einen Nahrungskonkurrenten zu streiten. Danke Dir für dieses sehr schöne Foto.
Gruß
Heinz

Hello Wishnu.
What an expression of this bird!
I'm not sure if he is angry, is singing or what! But the truth is that is showing his emotions!
I like a lot the POV, the feathers details, the colors of the bird...
The background is so good...very well DOF.
I like a lot the composition and the frame used.
Well done, congratulations and happy holidays,
JM

I wonder what you said to him. Hahaa...

Hi Sabine

Glad to hear your "nightmare" week is over and nice to see you back and posting :)
I'm guessing the little guy's mood here is pretty much a description of last week :))
Anyway, his pose is fantastic, the POV here is exceptional and that small feather on top of his head is just ... charming :))
Lovely colors, great exposure, very nice sharp details and a beautiful composition.
Bravo, TFS and Happy Holidays

Hi Sabine,

Hi Sabine.
Perfect captured moment and amazing mood of this beautiful bird. A lot of expression and emotion in this scene. Nice colours and lighting, excellent composition and blurriness of the BG. May be f/5.0 is too fast a bit.
Feed a birdy, please.
Superb done and TFS. Best wishes for holiday time.
Alexei.

bonjour sabine
ho,pas commode cet oiseau!!!
excellents details dans le plumage et jolies couleurs.
il manque un peu d'espace devant l'oiseau,mais joli cliché tout de même.

Hello Sabine,
Great shot of the Bullfinch, to me he is the real Christmas bird!! But I've never seen one with an Red Indian head-dress before!! Clever action shot, nice focus and a good composition.

Hi Sabine,

What a great action shot of this funny, but beautiful coloured bird. I like your capture very much.
Great details, composition and BG.
Thanks for sharing!

Greetings, Nel

Wonderful shot.Great timing..Sharpness,details and blur BG is excellent.Well done.TFS.

Hello Sabine,
This is a very nice and strange picture at the same time. This bird looks by not having a face but just a beak ;) What a big mouth he has :-) He seems a little bothered, what have you done to him? This is a very nice bird shot with excellent details. Thanks,
Claudine

Hi Sabine,

Bravo, nice shot. Nice POV, DOF and beautiful vivid colors. Details are good too.
Well done.
Merry Christmas.

I can hear him shouting down here. What did you say to him Sabine? What a Dompfaff - I love the name! Bright and colourful and TFS.
I'm very tired as I've had a busy day and not much sleep last night!! So good night!!

Hi Sabine

Sure looks like he’s going to throw all his toys out of the cot, this FF&FFF (fllippin’ furious & funny faced finch).

A lovely composition and POV with beautiful rich colours, excellent sharp details, stunning BG well isolated and OOF, and great exposure control.

Very well done and TFS.

Hi Sabine,
this Pyrrhula pyrrhula was very confident with you. In Italy that is impossible.
The shot is very nice and cute with good POV, DOF and sharpness.
