I ike it Jon. We used to call the song " Chipp Chipp Cherry oo ee arr. Never been able to work out why ! Its a perfect pic of a chaffy singing in a bush.. Amazing no one likes it , Should have been a Lion maybe.

A superb classic chaffy in song. The branch in front of the bird's wing is not ideal but nor is it a deal breaker.

Nice image Jon with good natural colours and good sharpness. I too wish the branch wasn't in front of the wing but that is my only negative.

Hi Jon, good singing pose with the open beak, and I like how the pose follows the line of the perch. I havent seen this species before, but I do like the colours on him.
