Goldfinches at the feeders

That's lovely MPH. :)

I'm lucky to have five of these beautiful birds visiting my feeders for their niger and sunflower seed.

Super aren't they! Thank you MPH. I like to keep an eye out for their nests in trees in Thurso gardens, often found alongside busy roads - I find it amazing how they tolerate the noise of the passing traffic. Tell-tale signs are the droppings that the chicks produce as they near fledging, forming a pile on the pavement below! Although I find most of the nests in the autumn once the leaves have fallen from the trees.

Our record is 14 at once on our niger feeders this year.
