Description Shooting these one require alot of female as they get scared very easily. Female are alot easier to shoot but not as pretty as males.

very good capture.I noticed that those are not that shy at all. We have many goldfinches in our yard , but I agree the female gets used to humans faster then the male.
Great capture I love those birds

Maybe I'm out of luck but I couldn't get closer than 7-8 meters. Thank you very much for your comment!

Believe me when ever I tried to get a camera close to these little birds they "run" as soon as I am out in the yard WITHOUT a camera .... they stick around and almost ignore me I haven't had any luch with a camera around them either.
