Did you know that goldfinches are strict vegetarians, only eating the odd insect inadvertently? Their favorite foods are the seeds of asters, sunflowers and thistles, as well as those of alder, birch and elm trees

Beautifully captured Missy. Lovely sharp detail, and like that you caught him with the Thistle-seed in his beak.

I agree. Lovely combination of colour too.
