Waiting - and Waiting

There was a pretty good back-up at this particular feeder and the goldfinch patiently waited his turn - not 10 feet from the glass door to the backyard. I appreciate all the help I can get. It was cold out!

Gorgeous capture of this lovely bird! I never see them anymore, but I haven't put out thistle for them since the squirrels chewed up the sock feeders.

What an incredible capture, oh my.

[Denise (lyndemc)]

What vibrant colors this one has. My goldfinches are pale in comparison. (Maybe it's the weaker sunlight up here in IL that makes the difference. Haha.) Milanie, thanks so much for all the sweet, generous comments you've shared on my December theme of soft and blurry. You're a joy to create pictures for.

Still see goldfinches here but they are wearing their winter (much duller) colors. This is a terrific through-the-window capture!
