Greenfinch
Carduelis chloris
TR: Florya

*The Greenfinch is a familiar garden bird since it was one of the first species to master the knack of feeding from red peanut bags. The male can be quite conspicuously green but in females and juveniles this may not be so obvious. Such birds can still be identified though by the pale yellow panels in the closed primaries and in the sides of the tail.

Breeds in gardens, parks, scrub and hedges. Winters on farmland and in gardens

Widespread and numerous in most of Europe except Lapland. 12-15 million breeding pairs across most of Europe except the Scandinavian Highlands.

Hi Selen

Great cloae up shot of the pretty Greenfinch, nicely composed with a great POV and pose, I can't beleive the bird is managing to balance on such a flimsy perch, lovely natural colours and nice sharp detail.

Biraz fazla acıkmışa benziyor agzına burnuna bulaştırmış o)) güzel bir anda yakalmışsın eline saglık Selen

Merhaba Selen, beautiful shot with great light that enhances the contrast of the fine detail. Nice pov and pose caught. It looks a bit of a dirty bird but still a beautiful catch. Excellent bg separation. I like the shallow dof. A nice high quality standard. Tfs Selamlar Necip

Hi Selen,
the portrait has turned out very well with the light from the side, enhancing the individual feathers and making the green-yellow feathers shine. Beautiful!
My best regards, Selen

Hi Selen,
Excellent shot of this cute little Greenfinch with lovely yellow colours and details on its plumage. Great handling of harsh natural lighting and you have captured a fine pose here. Superb DOF isolates it from the darkish BG well and I like your chosen POV to portray it. Very nicely composed. Kudos.
