365 Yellow
The goldfinches have changed into their nice yellow spring coats. I have one flock that hangs around for a few months so I get to see them brighten up. They will probably leave next month.

The goldfinches come in droves to our yard and stay about 2 weeks. A rest-over, I suspect. Little tiny things. If they were to all remain still for just a second or two, I could not see them in the yard. But they are ever moving. Beautiful little creatures and you did yourself proud with this photo.

I love how the yellow pops out from the light brown branches, especially against the bright blue sky.

The yellow and blue are lovely - I like how you captured him framed by the branches.

Beautiful shot. We only see one or two around here but will try and get my shot if I can.

They are such beautiful birds. I think they may summer up here because I see them a lot during the warm months when there is thistle available.

Beautiful color in this shot! I don't think our finches have their bright coats yet.
