"We're Back!" by sunnygreenwood

"We're Back!"

Today marks the return of the Goldfinches and Grosbeaks to our 'Railing Café'. With any luck, they [and dozens of their buddies] will be here for the rest of the fall and winter. They are two birds with similar colours but they're much different in size, and interestingly enough, they seem to travel together. They were just a bit out of range for the zoom on my older camera. Only 4 or 5 more sleeps until my broken camera is replaced.

Many thanks for dropping by.
Very pretty shot and a pretty bird. I don't think we have those in Pennsylvania. They must really like the cold. What a nice uplifting wonder of nature to have in the winter.

I'm just driving back from Haliburton and I was watching the goldfinches on my mom's feeder. I haven't seen them at my house yet!

Beautiful shot, Anne. Local trappers trap them and, unfortunately, keep them in cages for their song.

Cool shot. Looking forward to the shots. Especially like the Gosbeaks.

Yes, it's time for them! I've only had chickadees and tufted titmice so far.
