The day of the goldfinch by rosiekind

The day of the goldfinch

It's another lovely day and I've been for a walk along Wood Lane this morning. I saw lots of birds as usual but when I came back, I thought to myself, I see just as many birds in the garden! However, it's always nice to see them in their natural environment - the hedgerows. After I named this pic, I wondered whether to have a daily/weekly theme for one of my albums such as "the day of............", e.g goldfinch, blue-tit, etc. Those people who have been following me for ages will remember that in one of my albums I chose a colour to post pics of each week so I would post a pic of red things, blue things, etc. It gave me a bit of a challenge so I might think of doing something like this again with birds or something.

Anyway enough of my ramblings. Thanks to everyone who views my pics, comments and Favs them. It really is much appreciated.
We don't get these kind of goldfinch around here. Very cool.

Lovely goldfinch!! I have been watching them in my garden this morning - they are coming every day to feed with the family - so lovely to watch. Did you see Springwatch last night? They were showing the flithy goldfinch nest when suddenly an adder went into the nest and took a chick. They really have the dirtiest nests and the smell must have attracted the snake!! Yuk!!
