a wonderful wonderful image Pat! and nicely named...

i so LOVE the soft tones of the sky matching the feel of the thistle and the finch!!!

i believe goldfinche4s are the first to turn yellow in january yet wait to nest last for the

thistle... the down of the thistle to line their nest with... have you heard that?

vote!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i LOVE everything about this wonderful image!!!
