Visiting my family in PEI for an early Christmas, there were two goldfinch in the tree waiting to try out the new bird feeder. The birds were far to skittish for me to get to close. Birds seem to have no patience for me.

They have no patience for most everyone, especially those banders. Good Looking Finches!

I thought this thread had gone the way of the dodo bird... a week later, it pops to life.

Thanks for the comments! There were seven of the birds zipping around, but never sitting still long enough to get a group shot.
