These common, yet adorable finches are often just outside the window singing and feeding on seeds.

Amazing shots
from those little birds :)))
When I want made shots they are always flying away :(
Oooh, sweet shots!
Beautiful shots, Diane. Nothing is ever too common to practice photographing. Here in Khartoum, the only birds that visit our feeder on the balcony are sparrows,Common bulbuls and one pigeon. Yet I've captured some of the most interesting bird images while here... have a wonderful day.
These are gorgeous photos of the birds..They are just adorable.
Wow. you managed to capture the birds before they flew away. Good.
They are so pretty; flowers that fly! My bird photos are always from far away, and then because I don't have great zoom power on my camera, they are blurry. I love your lovely clear photos!
That last photo is really great! As all the others are too. Such beautiful colors...
What a sweet tweety tweet post!!!
Such lovely little finches!
Beautiful photoes!

You are so right.
Oh Diane, they look so pretty! They made me recall those stuffed birds sold in shops. I can't believe that thease are real.
fantastic shots diane
Common to you, exotic to me, so cute!
Beautiful quotes. I have never seen those types of birds before. Thanks for all your beautiful nature shots.
I especially like the little yellow one Diane.
I checked the settings on my camera when I took those owl shots and they were: F1/250 ISO 400 Hope this helps. Also I find that taking them on continous works well as they are flying. Another thing you might try is using a Sport setting if you camera has one.
Joan, thank you so much, it does help. :)
How fun to watch and listen to... you must be very patient!
Lovely!
Beautiful photos of these delicate little finches. We have gold finches that come through in late Spring - I just saw my first pair yesterday!
Oh what fun! I'm looking out at the same birds! I have 5 pair of purple finches hanging out, and tens of tens of goldfinches. I just love them ~karen
Great shots of the birds.
these are great! i love the goldfinch starring right at the camera- how cute!
These are great bird photos. I love taking pictures of birds but they never come out this good.
Hi Diane, Great pictures of your birds. Love the finches --and you have some great pictures.
We've had a wonderful day today at the beach... Beautiful weather after the rain yesterday (clear, sunny, breezy, warm---PERFECT)...
Hugs,
Betsy
That little yellow one is precious and you have these outside your window singing? OMG, can I move in? I would love to see and hear them outside my place.
Not fair! Those birds are all so cute and pretty. How in the world that you get so many colors on the same type of branches?
Very beautiful birds. They are so colorful and cute.
Diane, these are great shots. Tiny birds with a great appetite for life.
Beautiful Words and lovely shots !Simply fantastic !
Absolutely beautiful! I am envious of your shots. Whenever I want to take photos of the birds, they always fly. Very seldom that they "pose" for my camera.
Have a great weekend Diane and Happy Mother's day.
These are beautiful birds! They are so adorable the way you captured them!
I like that green bird in the bottom photo!
