Hello Paul,
How lucky you're to get these lovely birds coming to your garden! This is a great capture showing it nicely in profile. Excellent sharpness and beautiful colours. A fine soft background and well composed too.

Hi Paul. This is one i have yet to get this year. To see 40 at once must be a sight. You have taken this one with a nice pose on the branch with the sonw. They look a very delicate bird but as we know they are hardy little birds. You have taken this with fine detail and natural colours. well done TFS.

Hello paul,

Your photo has a nice composition. The few elements makes viewer concentrate on the main subject. Image is good showing fine details of bird's plumage. The colors of the plumage blends nicely with the background.
