Canon 1Ds, 500 IS, f/7.1, 1/200, ISO 400, FF
I had so much fun this past summer watching all the different baby birds on my deck. Although it's hard to choose, I think one of my favorites were the baby goldfinch. Maybe just because there were so many of them. Every year I seem to accumulate more and more goldfinch. I'm currently feeding at least 5 dozen every day. The babies are especially fun to watch as they chase their parents all around begging for food in the summer. I also love the way they get all fluffed up every so often when they're hanging around waiting for mom and dad to come back. These are two youngsters. I'm not sure if they were each hoping the other was going to feed it or if one was telling the other to get off his thistle plant. Hopefully next summer I'll get a chance to try this shot again with a little more speed and a better perch. Comments appreciated! Kim Steininger
