In the last month, they have been returning to the sunflower hearts with late broods of young. Maybe they sensed this late Indian Summer and we have about 30 at a time sometimes. Having to replenish the feeder daily. The kids are scruffy, messy, ill mannered and they scrap a lot !!
But they are great fun to watch.

One young looking Goldfinch came into the garden late afternoon today ... sipped for a while from the bird bath ... then I spotted our cat watching it so shooed the bird away!
