[FONT=georgia,palatino]I finally got our Goldfinches, at least one bird, to perch on my tree and this stick rather than the feeder. Hope to get a few more shots after they finished changing their spring clothes.

Very nice, Mike.

Maybe they do not have their full color yet....but they look different than the American Goldfinches around here.

Great captures, really like the second, just perfect. One of my favorite song birds.

Love the second shot, Mike! Looks like you should get some nice photos with your setup!

I'm still dialing in my set-up, but I'm starting to get a 'couple' of great shots....if I do say so myself!

Thanks for looking!
