GREENFINCH (singing)

By simmo73
Good afternoon everyone,
Firstly I would like to thank all for your kind support and U/As for my Zebra Spider images.(all U/As contacted) I am very grateful to you all.
Well today I managed to grab this shot of a Greenfinch in our apple tree singing its little head off. Unfortunately I just grabbed the camera and fired of a shot through our window resulting in blown out sky and not ideal. But it's so unusual to see this bird singing I thought I would share it with you. Quite a bit of help from affinity Photo and the Vignette filter. it's also cropped to death!
Hope you like it.
Geoff
