Greenfinch
There’s a Greenfinch in a familiar place – up the top of a tree.
It’s not a flattering angle:
Thankfully, when I hide myself away under a crab apple tree, it comes down to eye level, just in front of me. And there it remains, long enough for me to photograph it and to really appreciate it.
Glorious.
