AN ACROBATIC Goldfinch bird has been captured performing the splits as it tries to balance between two teasel plants. The amusing pictures show the Goldfinch with a foot on each teasel as its legs slowly get stretched wider, hopping over fully to one of the plants and going in for a closer look. Other striking shots show the bird off balance as the teasels move in the wind, using its tail to stretch across three of the plants and fighting another Goldfinch in the air. The remarkable photographs were taken at Hawick in the Scottish borders by local wildlife photographer Ron McCombe (64). Mediadrumimages / Ron McCombe
