I was just up north near Tower at a relative’s house and there were tons of goldfinches at their feeder. They are so mellow! There were three males just
hanging out pecking at seeds on the platform although they did keep their crests raised more than I’ve ever seen. And the most yellow female ever! She was as yellow as a bright male and the other females looked positively brown next to her. She did have the brightest, most feisty mate as well so I’m assuming her brightness was a good thing.

We love this time of the year when we have several goldfinche families chowing down on the coneflower seeds in the yard. Hope you are well and enjoying your summer!

I’ve always loved the goldfinches – yellow is my favorite color.
