Great photo! You did a good job freezing that flap. 1/4000s is crazy is crazy stuff, ha. I’d never have good enough lighting to shoot that with my lens. I got a few photos of a goldfinch yesterday, but they’re not good enough.

I’m curious - in the UK I would have called that a Goldcrest or perhaps Firecrest: a Goldfinch being very different. Is this another case of different places, different names?

Nice sharp action photo either way!
