Another absolutely superb photo. The streaks of snow are a wonderful touch and the dot of snow on it's beak caps it off for me. Congrats Steve.

Steve, another brilliant capture. I've never seen a purple finch … perhaps they're not city dwellers. You must have incredible patience to capture these stunning wildlife photos. Beautiful work!

Great shot Steve ... the subtle redish coloring of the bird is intriquing.
