A little bit of recent Goldfinch activity in honor of Easter....
Most people that saw me during my bird photography sessions would wonder what the hell I was doing. I'm usually stuck in a pose with the camera up to my eye for lengths of 30 minutes on average until I absolutely have to move because the position is killing me. I used to use a blind tent but the weather beat it up over time.
It takes a lot of patience to get close enough with a zoom lens to get good photographs. For every "good" photo, there's about 6 more photos that are too similar or just not good at all.
I hope you enjoy these recent Goldfinch visitors of mine!...














I've never had a group of Goldfinches collect on my roof before. Thought it was pretty interesting when I turned around once. I guess they'll go anywhere together.
