Hi Jon,

Catching these small birds on the wing really is a specialty of yours!

You have caught a nice pose, here. Lovely colour and all clean and sharp where it should be. I like the motion blur in the wingtips/edges.

Thanks for sharing!

Looking good Jon. Lovely flight pose and detail on the bird. Very well captured. I like the colours on the bird. Greenfinches up here are getting more difficult to see.

Thanks Gerald & Will. Greenfinches - not common here either, currently I guess two pairs maximum visiting...... did have a Siskin yesterday though.
