A Lesser Goldfinch gorges itself on the seeds from a Mulefat bush. Mulefat looks alot like willow, but if you look closely you will see flower heads and not catkins.

Lesser Goldfinch and Mulefat Bush sounds like something from a Zane Grey or Louis L'Amour for the young-ins Garrett. Nice post.

Marvelous composition with excellent details and colour, Garrett! The mulefat seeds (strange name) don't look appetizing, but I guess he likes it :) I love how he's giving you the eye!

Make love not war, and have a happy new year.
I love it's colors, how they merge from one tone to the next. Excellent details and composition with those fluffs in the beak.

Couple of thoughts, hope you don't mind ...
Some of the shadowed area's details, I believe, could be elevated through the employment of a tutorial on site by Phil; aka philcUK. Namely this one:
"Faking the HDR thing......"
And since I have both feet where they are usually planted, any thought given to cloning out the two or three flower heads(?) in the lower right-hand section?
That said, this is a good good shot, Garrett. And one that I do enjoy.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful images with us. This one, of course, being no exception. :o)
