The Winter Goldfinches

The winter American Goldfinches have a lot less color than they do in the summer,
you probably all ready knew that!
I see them sporadically in the winter, but this week I have been seeing a lot.

The American Goldfinch is New Jersey's State Bird!


- talk about a lot of sticks, but he choose to sit in the middle and give me a clear view -



- here he was dining on berries -


That's all for today, I think perhaps I have been doing too much and my body is kicking back.
I may rest today or just spend time with my feathered friends!
