    Backyard Goldfinch

    It's been a very wintery weekend here in Wisconsin. Lots of heavy, wet snow, and now it's turned into sleet & snow. After spending most of the morning shoveling snow, I decided to try to shoot some of the finces in the back yard. This was taken from the bedroom window.

    Thanks Paul. I tried to get some more shots this afternoon, but the birds didn't want to play. I have a better view of more birds from my next door neighbors house (my parents) but when I got over there, all the birds were gone.
