Avian obscenities

Tiny yellow bundles of energy, two male goldfinches shout avian obscenities midair.

Not a good photograph, but it gives an idea of their Lilliputian passion.

See two birds collide.

    Looks like they are approaching a yin-yang formation, twirling into a maelstrom!

    *I* think it is a great pic!

    They’re feisty and combative. The focus is off on this one, which is why I’m hard on it, but it does capture a nice moment.

    I’m thinking “Let’s twist again! Like we did last summer”

    Yep, that’s what I’m thinking, and I liked the shot, even though some guy named “Rick” didn’t think it worthy! :-)

    Thanks Diane. Not as sharp as I would like, but still interesting.
