Of course it is a slight distraction with the blurred birds on the left Susan, but this is still a truly charming photo with all the Goldfinches on your feeder. You have a nicely softened background as well for the birds and the feeder to stand out in a very good way.

The feeder and the birds to the right are sharp, even if the photo was taken through a window. You must have very clean windows. I also think the exposure is good.

The photo has also got a good cropping and the birds are well placed within the frame. It is not a perfect shot Susan, but I still like it very much.

    Annie,
    Thanks a million for your detailed & complementary review. of the two fighting birds on the left, the one on the right drove off the one on the left that they flew off to another feeder below. I was using the Sports setting on the camera but it was not fast enough to stop the motion of their wings which even as I watched seemed blurred in reality.

Very interesting the birds fighting almost for food. You have caught the beautiful blue in their feathers and the wings moving is very evident and gives such life to the shot. Clear and crisp. Good light. A pleasure to view.

This is an interesting of the many Goldfinches in one frame with different activities!:) You have timed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

Hi Susan!
That's quite an interesting picture,my friend! ( And it's a good looking photograph as well! : ) )
The blurred wings add a nice sense of Authenticity and Immediacy to this scene of these small Avians growing excited over their food!
A really 'Good Show',my friend! : )

Another fabulous shot of the birds on your feeder. I love the positioning of the spectators, and the squabbling birds. The whole shot tells a great story, and it's well presented.
