Chaffinch, Sw. Bofink
This is my 100th post to TN.
I post one of my favourites, a Chaffinch female.
She was sitting on a fence down by our small river.
I like it very much. I hope you like it too.
It’s our most common bird together with the willow warbler.
It’s one of Europe's commonest birds.
In Sweden it will not stay for the winter, you can see it in April to October.

Technique:
Sigma 70-200 / 2,8 EX HSM + 1,4 X converter
ISO 200 - 1/3 ev. Raw-format .
Converted ,contrast and levels ,crop, resized to 800 pixels , USM save as JPG for the site.
I used Adobe Photoshop Elements 3 for PP

Congratulations on your 100th post on TN. It's been a pleasure viewing your work and this picture is no exception. Very nice work. This must be their toilet.

Well done Gert.

Sorry to hear about your snowy weather.

Gert, Congratulations! Fitting that you post one of your own favorites I think. A crisp, sharp, detailed, lateral shot. Now if you could just teach this bird to clean-up after itself! ;-)) Again, congratulations on your 100th!

It is a strange feeling but in a great deal of your bird shots the seem your friends, look so relaxed... Good detail although the BG elements are not very beautiful.
