It was my BD present today, I had 2 of the brightest yellow finches on my clothesline....

Last year they didn't come around until near the very end of summer, so maybe they'll stick around now they know I give out free food! laugh

I just love them, and my neighbor told me years ago there were tons of them, but she never sees them anymore! thumbup

Glad you got to see the goldfinches on your special day. We have tons here - they're eating me out of house and home. Actually, eating all the thistle!

I need to clean out my gold finch feeder. They never stay long here. How about where you are?
