Golden Goldfinch

Just having a little experiment with the early evening sunlight, a gold reflector and one of our trees when I hit on the idea of lighting the feeder to get the shutter speed up ... this is the result.

Sadly, a large wood pigeon decided it needed to some of the golden light too and kept frightening the smaller birds off.

I'm assuming this is one of this year's young, most of the adults have that 'distressed' look about them from chasing about feeding their broods.
