I first saw this nest on Sunday morning when the light was bad so went back in the
late afternoon on Monday when the park was quieter too. There are four babies
stuffed in the nest. It's one of the more disgusting nests as there's poop all over the sides.



The parent came only every 45-60 minutes with food. I went back early Tuesday morning
and the nest was empty with no goldfinches in sight.
