These are beautiful finches resident in the UK. They take their name from the gold edged wing feathers. This was a series of test shots with the new Nikon D7200 and the Tamron 150 - 600 at a focal length of 550 - 600 mm to check for sharpness at the longer end. Camera was set at f8 and ISO of 200.

These are part of a series of eight test shots. Focus was very swift and accurate. See the gallery for more images in the series.
