17 East Winds Wingbeats

The local Finches were very tame here, and quite brazenly would come to your table as soon as you had finished, or even before. Their favourite food included sugar, so they inevitably stopped off at any sweet glasses to see what was left. When I took this picture, it had decided at the instant of operating the shutter to take off, to produce this amazing shot. Unfortunately, as it wasn't planned to capture this, - it was framed for a close-up of it sitting on the glass - the wing-tips were out of the frame.
