Siskin

[Carel v/d Sanden]

In the Netherlands starts slowly again colder.
Then the siskin back from the far north.
A small water bowl placed in the woods while posting.
Frequently do they come down to drink, and used this.

Carel:

Good pose, glad he is on this side of the perch so tail not cut off. Nice fall colors, although I wish the green patch wasn't right behind him.

Sharp.

To my eye the bird has a significant green color cast. I removed some of that .

Cheers

Nice shot, I like the pose too, they are colourful little birds. I must admit I did not consider a green cast in the original but I think the repost does show more true colouration.

Real nice shot. Really like the pose, lovely background, and I like the repost better. Colors on the bird look more natural.
Well done.
