I bought a sock feeder today and about 10 of these guys showed up 2 hours after I put it up. At least they land on the branches before they hit the sock.
oooo I'm jelous... The finches never seem to sit still enough for me to be able to get good shots of them. This is peeeerft, so clear and what a great colour!
Good job with this Gold Finch Gregg. Love the bright yellow color that the male of this species has....and wears it so proudly :)
I have several at my tube feeder......they are chatty characters and make music in my kitchen when the deck doors are open!
thanks for sharing this with me :=)

~ Superb shot Gregg! They are the state bird of my home state NJ but I only saw them once on fading zinnias eating the seeds I assume. I read they can winter in FL so I'm still hoping to see them someday again, lol. Thanks for sharing!
