The European Greenfinch, or just Greenfinch, Carduelis chloris, is a small passerine bird in the finch family Fringillidae. The genus Carduelis might be split up and in this case, the greenfinches would be separated in their old genus Chloris again. This bird is widespread throughout Europe, north Africa and south west Asia. It is mainly resident, but some northernmost populations migrate further south. Woodland edges, farmland hedges and gardens with relatively thick vegetation are favoured for breeding. It nests in trees or bushes, laying 3-8 eggs. This species can form large flocks outside the breeding season, sometimes mixing with other finches and buntings. They feed largely on seeds, but also feed their young insects. The Greenfinch is 14-16 cm in length and is similar in size and shape to a Chaffinch, but is mainly green, with yellow in the wings and tail. The female and young birds are duller and have brown tones on the back. The bill is thick and conical. The song contains wheezes and twitters, and the male has a "butterfly" display flight.

Hallo Huseyin
A stunning, super sharp and super special image filled with lovely colours and clear details. Masterly photographed and I cannot find any fault. You have managed to capture this European Greenfinch,in a great pose with the insect in its mouth. Details of both the bird and the catch in its mouth are really great and the colours is fabulous. Focus, sharpness and framing is great and presented in a most delightful manner. Lovely soft, plain coloured background. Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards
Anna
