Goldfinches are hard to get. They don't stay still for very long even at feeders. I really like the last one.
thanx Scott. yea they are hard to catch. very skittish so had to keep my distance and even with 750mm with the 1.5 factor I had to do alot of cropping. Wish the tamron could use a tele converter
Strobist has a very interesting blog entry on back yard bird photography, including a pic of the setup! Worth a read (and a great site to boot!) http://strobist.blogspot.com/2008/08/ar ... ly-in.html
