I love finches. We had some living in a tree near the front of our house. But sadly, the tree had to come down when we remodeled. And now the finches have moved on.

You have some stellar shots there and I like that they are on natural perches. The snow coming down is such a lovely addition and the fact that you can see the flakes on their little heads is too fun!

Splendid pictures - they do seem to be made for the snow.

Forgive my ignorance of finches - but what sort is it?


Cheers and thanks for linking to WBW
