This bird's coloring always looks like it was put together by a committee - a little goldfinch, a little robin etc.

Richie, it's observing you in a relaxed way. Perhaps it knows you meanwhile, 😁 .
Splendid capture again!

If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins! Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.

The common chaffinch was once popular as a caged songbird and large numbers of wild birds were trapped and sold. At the end of the 19th century, trapping even depleted the number of birds in London parks. In 1882, the English publisher Samuel Orchart Beeton issued a guide on the care of caged birds and included the recommendation: **To parents and guardians plagued with a morose and sulky boy, my advice is, buy him a chaffinch.**
