Our local Goldfinches were beginning to brighten a couple of weeks ago as noted in a previous post. They are now bright yellow and black. This one sat quietly and let me get a few photos to share with you.

We love our goldfinches! 🙂
They add such a splash of color.
Wonderful photos
Thank you, Anne. It’s good to see you today.
Handsome fellow – I love goldfinches. Our canary of the north!
In that last photo, I can imagine him thinking, “If he makes one move on this seed, there’s going to be trouble.” Their color is such a beautiful yellow — so clear and pure. It’s almost lemon-like. Very pretty.

I like seeing them and Cardinals in the morning sunshine. They really light up the area around the feeders. Yes, they are lemon-like in color. I like lemon.
How lovely they are!
Beauty! Love the contrast of Yellow, Black and White. I’ve just recently taken an interest in capturing bird images (due to an upgrade in my camera gear) Here’s one of my favourites …

Thanks for stopping by, Michael. Yesterday I saw 8 of the yellow fellows flashing around in the sunshine.
I know what you mean by upgrades to the gear. I got a new camera last spring with a big zoom ratio. It has expanded horizons.
I enjoyed your recent bird shots of the 7. And, I watched the Mt. St. Helens video. I hope to go there someday.
Thanks Jim! After much research I recently purchased a mirrorless camera Lumix G85 with a very bright electronic viewfinder – great for folks with eyeglasses – then I added a zoom equivalent of 28-280mm – just perfect for most outdoor stuff. Thanks for taking time to view my video – you’ll really enjoy visiting the park. Too bad we couldn’t see Mt St Helens due to fog.
