American Goldfinch (Male)

Lake Frederick, Virginia

We have flocks of these beautiful finches coming in for thistle and sunflower seeds; this male is in full breeding plumage.
This is one in a flock of Goldfinches that brought in Pine Siskin to my feeders this morning (in the rain). See 'previous' for a look at the Pine Siskin.
