Peter, we haven't even been out today - perhaps tomorrow.

This is lovely Peter. What beautiful colours the bullfinch has, and you have captured them so well. You are getting quite a collection of bird shots

Fabulous shot of the bullfinch Peter but only 1 fav before me?

[Joanna kate]

Such a pretty bird, fav

[Peter]

@onewing Thank you Babs I got the impression he was not happy to have his photograph taken:)

[Peter]

@henrir Thanks Henri for both your comment and fav, Bullfinches are relatively common in the UK with approx 190,00 breeding pairs, just as a point of interest Texas is almost 3 times larger than the United Kingdom.

@louannwarren Thanks for you comment Lou Ann, they really stand out in the crowd:)

@stray_shooter Thanks Ron this shot was taken in a place I have only just discovered, a clearing in the woodland area only accessible by foot, walkers including me take bird feed and lay it around the clearing, its a great place to get shots of a variety of birds even in the rain:)
