Goldfinch in Early-Morning Light

I decided to set up a bird-feeding station in my garden to do some photography at home. Goldfinches were the most beautiful and frequent visitors. I planted teasels and kept the seed heads stocked with niger seeds, thereby creating a natural look. The dusting of snow was a bonus!
