Stand Alone

This GOLD (Thanks to Paula for catching my God like Typo.) Finch was in the yard all by his/her self.

Editing consisted of a slight crop in Ribbet

Is that meant to read God Finch? Or Gold Finch? Either way, it's a beauty - Godlike powers or no:)

Thanks! Apparently I haven't had enough coffee today. Gold Finch this is. The focus looks all wonky to me. I don't like it.

It looked okay on camera, but once I uploaded it seems like the focus is more on the branch than the bird.

Thanks! Sometimes I worry that people get sick of looking at them.
