Description
I live in the forest east of Asheville, NC. Here in the Blue Ridge Mountains, songbirds and wildlife give me great pleasure. From my second story office window, I set up a Canon 5D Mark III and an f/2.8 400mm lens to shoot birds that perch in trees at the forest edge. Here a male Purple Finch, one of more than 21 species of birds that come through my yard at various times of year.

Stunning bird and capture, John! I've only seen this bird once in Maine and will never forget it. Lovely. Your beautiful image has been featured by Wild Birds Of The World. L/F
