It was ready, set, go for these two birds perched on a withered sunflower stalk.
Just as I hit the shutter button on my camera, the female Purple Finch decided to lung for the birdfeeder a few feet away. The American Goldfinch in the foreground soon followed.
I still liked the photo even though the Purple Finch is a bit blurry.
