An American Goldfinch changes colors with the seasons. In autumn the male molts from summer’s gold to winter’s tan. In the spring, another change begins and the male goldfinch becomes bright yellow.
Today was the first day I noticed the goldfinches sporting their summer feathers. I had two pairs visiting my yard and photographed this sweet couple having a snack at my feeder. These beautiful birds are the perfect choice for today’s Color Your World – 120 Days of Crayola Challenge – Yellow.
I just love your photos! Goldfinches are such beauties 🙂

Thanks so much. This is the first year I have a camera with a really good zoom. I’m really enjoying capturing the images of local birds. 🙂

In North Carolina, we have a lot of finches that visit our feeders. We enjoy them and look forward to getting back up there. Rebekah has a a good variety of birds at her feeder here in Florida but I miss the finches.

They are so beautiful. When I see them the first time in the spring I’m surprised all over again at the vibrancy of their yellow feathers.
