I discovered these little guys on one of my Internet excursions

and fell in love.

Here's another of our real life feathered friends.

During the winter the goldfinches were more brown than yellow.

Then they started turning gold again, but very slowly.

They were quite spotted for a while.

Their summer coats are much prettier!

Thanks for the visit.

Enjoy!
