I am awash in yellow.

Normally winter birds for me, the Pine Siskins are staying around this spring.

A male American Goldfinch.

A male Lesser Goldfinch. You can see why they used to be named Olive-backed Goldfinches.

All the perches were occupied.

Even takers on the nyger feeder.

And more still in the brush awaiting their turn.

Love your PS bird stitch! I stitched those last year; they were fun stitches. Look at all the yellow that have shown up at your house!

Wow! Love the yellow birds. When gold finches visit me here in SoCal you can bet it's because my cosmos are going to seed.😊
