Bullfinch

I still have a few shots from my London trip, but think it is time to move onto something new.

I have only ever seen 2 Bullfinches in my life. They are quite a shy bird, but spotted this one sat in the top of our tree on tuesday.

We are off to Twycross Zoo today and then to the seaside at Skegness tomorrow, so I am planning to take my camera, so I guess I will be posting a few days of these shots ahead.

He's a beautiful bird and of course totally new for us Downunders. You've got him wonderfully clear and the bare branches make for a very striking shot. Enjoy your weekend trips and I'm looking forward to whatever primates you decide to share with us ;-)

A bullfinch! lucky you! We usually see one in the garden during the winter and one year we got 2 together. Lovely shot!

He's quite a show off, isn't he? It looks like someone sprayed him with day-glo orange paint. LOL
Fabulous shot.
