Nice pose Sandy. The perch is slightly mind-blowing? I understand these are lightweight birds, but i've never seen them perch on something so flimsy. And is that the sky behind the flower? A very artistic image.
Thanks for looking,

Mike, it's blue ocean behind the bird, and these weeds are quite sturdy. The finches perch here often when it's not windy.
