OMG! Beautiful yellow and black colors! They're so vibrant! I love this picture. I only wish the stick wasn't poking into the bird from the left.

Great shot Jay

Do your Male & Female Finches look the same or is the Female a bit dull ?

RbrtPtikLeoSeny ... thank you ... and yes, American Goldfinches are quite vibrant. The stick bothers me, too ... stupid unruly nature :)

skade, Bald Eagle, Tammie, Frank and LP ... thank you for taking the time to reply.

Tupe ... you flatter :o Thanks for your frequent kind comments!

larlen ... thank you. The female is not nearly so vibrant in color (my wife thinks that is very unfair :) ) ... they're a paler yellow/brown with black.
