 I took this from inside my living room, out my front window. I have bird feeders set up on my porch, and I wrapped bittersweet vines around the frame I hang the feeders from, hoping the birds would land on the vines for a nice capture. It was windy this particular day, making for some cute shots.


Thanks for all the great comments, and the favorites!

Nice pic of a cute bird. Could use a little bit of sharpening and if you have noise ninja it could use another pass. 6

Adorably fluffy bottom on that Goldfinch :-) Like the tightly gripped feet, too. Makes it quite clear it's windy.

Might prefer this somewhat less centered, just for a more interesting composition.
