This was taken a few years ago, but I don't think I have ever published it. Goldfinches can sure get busy when they find something they like. This was before the land was being farmed.
Oh, I miss these yellow birds. I used to see them in my hometown, but since moving to the mountains, I haven't seen one yet. I did have a woodpecker visit me recently though. That is a truly nice photo, Rose.
That is beautiful. Looks like a post card!!!
ReplyDeleteLovely photo. And you captured the fast motion of his beak wonderfully!
ReplyDeleteYou take such wonderful pictures!
ReplyDeleteDelightful!
ReplyDeleteI love the look of thistle and I've always like goldfinches so what could be better than have a picture with both of them in it.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot. I love looking through old photos. Many unpublished so it's nice to use those. Happy Shooting.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo of the Goldfinch! Have a happy weekend.
ReplyDeleteBe careful little bird.
ReplyDeleteThey are such beautiful birds. Love them eating the thistles.

Such a beautiful photo. I love this.
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous image! They like the dried up cone flowers in my yard and I love watching them. These thistle are so pretty. A superb image!
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful this is! Have a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteGreat capture as he is precariously perched on the thistles!
