Fun with Goldfinches

During a recent visit to my parents' home in Louisiana, I staked out their Goldfinch feeder and captured some of the finches' antics with my camera. You can click on the pictures to enlarge them if you'd like to get a closer look.

Here's one coming in for a landing,
but YIKES! ... there's no where to land!

And I could almost hear this one saying,
"Hey, make room for ME!"

Patiently waiting their turn!

Even though his buddies deserted him when I inched forward to get a closer shot, this little guy sat still for me ...

What a delightful way to spend twenty minutes. I loved watching them and was glad I was able to get these pictures for my parents.
