  • Goldfinch spotting

    I didn’t think it would be possible to get a clear photo of the Goldfinches in a nearby tree today, as they seemed to not want to sit in the same branches for long. I did get lucky however, with these two who seemed intent on disagreeing with who was going to sit on which branch! #30dayswild
