Chaffinch in a quiet moment Chaffinch was photographed by Ashburton Photographic Society member Nick Taylor. This is a male chaffinch whose powerful song is very well known, its fink or vink sounding call gives the finch family its English name. Males typically sing two or three different song types, and there is also regional dialects too. This image earned Nick an acceptance commendation in our Natural History Competition.
