GOLDFINCH......14th jan...2010

Pretty Goldfinch Motinot, and thats a smashing feeder, no wonder he couldn't resist!

That old feeder has been with us for years janey....i gave it a bit of a scrub and re-filled it...My bird pics are not so good...I have to take them from inside the house...my birds are very shy lol...Thanks for the bird name....:>)

Its a lovely pic.....he looks like he can't make his mind up...peanut or fatball..Lol!

I think he was doing a balancing act.. lol

Well done in capturing him

Good shot.

Beautiful pretty bird.....

lovely

What a beauty.

Thanks everyone for the lovely comments.....

~my goldfinches will only eat Niger seed or Sunflower hearts~yours mustn't be so fussy or maybe mine are too fussy!~ they seem to spend all their time on the feeders but fly into the trees as soon as the back door opens so I can't get good pictures either~ need a new camera I think!

is it gold or bullfinch ?

John, my friends Janey and Arlene say its a goldfinch and i think they're right....The bullfinch has a black head and a red chest...(see?....i'm learning )...lol....:>)
