Hello on this friday evening.
Today's post is an angry greenfinch that remembers me to the song "shout, shout, let it all out, ..." of the group Tears for Fears.

These greenfinches are the most agressive birds in my garden - total jealousy about food!
The light wasn't so good, it was a rainy day.

The European Greenfinch, or just Greenfinch, Carduelis chloris, is a small passerine bird in the finch family Fringillidae.

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.

Hi sabine,

A real good action captured The due drop gives a real great point. DOF and PV is perfect. Like the colours on this bird.

TFS and happy weekend.

Beautiful finch and composition Sabine.

I think though, that this fellow is shouting out to you, saying "Guter Tag Sabine! There is a water droplet for you to take one of your famous photos of, hurry!!!"

Wonderful details, colors, pose, exposure.

Great job, thank you!

Hi, Sabine.
What a pose and angry look! Excellent composition and quality on bird. Very nice background. Thanks.

Hi Sabine!
It's a rainy day alright, as we can make out from that drop hanging from the branch and looking as perfect as your Greenfinch!
So it's a two-in-one for you, and why not?
Regards,
Ram

Hallo Sabine,
da hast ja nen richtigen kleine Schreihals erwischt ;-). Ganz super eingefangen, enorme Schaerfe. Der POV ist super und auch ein herrliches DOF erzielt.
Schoenes Wochenende..Sky

Great shot! The background is superp.
It's goes to favorite!
Jorgen.

J'adore cette photo. Pas évident de saisir un oiseau en mouvement. Belle netteté et bonne saturation.

Bravo
Nic

Hi Sabine,
this is a very good shot with good details.. It's looks like the Greenfinch is thirsty and want to reach the water drop;-)
The compostion and POV are very good.

Great actionshot. In Holland we call this bird "groenling". That's because of the grenish color.
Thanks for sharing.

regards,
Zeno.

Hola Sabine, preciosa composición con muy buena luz y muy buen foco, los colores magnificos. Un saludo
