Exquisite. Outstanding image and treatment.
The yellow flower center in the background makes it appear that the house finch has a yellow crown. #1706172

Oh, thanks so much, Irene! Yes indeed, it looks like he has a little yellow cap on his head. I like the idea of a crown. I guess he's the King of Spring. ;o) #11690147
