Beautiful capture.
Snapped focus and lovely vibrant colours, - they really stand out against the muted background.
I've always struggled with goldfinches. I think it's a combination of the very soft feathering and the colouring which can be quite subtle if you don't get the bird looking just the right way. But this is a beauty. The perfect perch, too - compliments the bird without being intrusive.
Dale that's really lovely,although you have confused me mate because that looks like pussy willow (goat willow) so surely that means early summer rather than late??
