    Very nice and up to your usual standards. I would think he'd be a Hoary Redpoll taking into account the hoar frost.

    That lens (and you) created an awesome bokeh behind this little guy. Great exposure on him and cool composition as well.

    Just beautiful, Donna. Do you have a freakin' aviary in your back yard? Seems like we see a new bird every day. It just amazes me. Maybe I just can't see them but I just don't see that variety around here.

    Another beautiful capture Donna. Love the natural perches and the lovely bokeh. I think you are safe, as it is a Common Redpoll, (colour on cheeks).
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

    he's adorable. I've never heard of a Red poll let alone figuring out whether they are 'common' or 'hoary'!
