American Goldfinch #0157

White Rock, NM

Carduelis tristis

We are not seeing large flocks of Goldfinches any more, only 3 or 4 at a time. But today was a very windy day (>30 mph, gusts to 40mph), and only a few birds were out in the open battling the breezes. This one appears to have almost completed molting into his summer breeding plumage.
