| American Gold Finches in their Winter Plumage by Grandma Pearl
When it is finally spring, these friendly and chatty little finches will undergo quite a change. The males will put on their brightest sunshine yellow coats and black hats. Uttering a familiar call--'potato chip, potato chip', they will approach the feeders with an undulating flight pattern.

| House Finches and Gold Finches love both sunflower seeds and thistle (nyjer) seeds by Grandma Pearl
Pretty House Finches will brighten up once spring and summer roll around. They happily share the feeders will the little goldies.
So many finches waiting their turns at the feeders!
American Gold Finches, males and females like to cling to vertical surfaces. I love the intricate patterns of their wing feathers!
