American goldfinch - Carduelis tristis

American goldfinch - Carduelis tristis
The males really are gold in the summer, but they are on their way north then.

Thanks, Maurice. I read about your chaffinches. The goldfinch is somewhat smaller than the chaffinch.

Thank you very much, Jocelyne. All the birds were very quick this morning, and were at the feeder for only a few seconds at a time.

I'd gladly share their bright colors with you, if you can let me have a couple of your birds...
Nice shot of this little one. During the winter months it is impossible to tell males from females.

Thank you very much, Dörthe. Since we live within the forest, we see many kinds of birds, even in winter.
