Goldfinch

A day spent working out on Bornish machair doing bird surveys. Today started very calm and sunny which was lovely but it's gradually got windier as the day went on.

I took quite a few photographs today and was a bit hard-pushed to choose for my daily blip. I may put the almost blips into my blipfolio.

This very bold Goldfinch ( Carduelis carduelis) was in the garden this afternoon when i got home. From the face -markings, a male.
