What a lovely bird this is! I got to see the European Goldfinch a few times when I was in England the summer of 2013.
Here's my proof! I managed just one photo of this amazingly colorful bird.
I think it rather puts our American Goldfinch to shame.
Here's a Lesser Goldfinch and American Goldfinch - both males.

Again...
...and again.

Singing and drinking!
Your Goldfinch finish is adorable, Beth.
ReplyDeleteLove your finish. Hey now. I do NOT think it puts our goldfinch to shame. I LOVE our goldfinches very much. I miss them. I had feeders for them at every home we had. They do not live around here, by the apartment. The the goldfinches are just different, but both gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteI think your American goldfinches are very pretty too!
ReplyDeleteOh, I don't know, Beth - I think our American Goldfinches are pretty colorful in their own right! Look at that gorgeous yellow!
ReplyDeleteI've only seen the goldfinches once this year - they are such pretty little birds.
