Back in April 15, 2017 I managed to get a few pictures of this American Goldfinch with my Panasonic Lumix FZ35. This was shot through window glass and most of the images are cropped.
I managed to get a few more images of another Goldfinch this morning which I might post too. This is the season to see them brightly colored. In the winter they are dull brown. I used to think they left the area but they are still around.
Goldfinch side view
They are pretty active birds and don’t stand still long for the camera. I really like the bright yellow color they are fun to spot. There are a few different varieties but the American Goldfinch I’ve seen most often.

He flew around and landed looking the other direction.

Here’s the nice picture of his face that I was wanting to take.
Goldfinch Looking Forward
I enjoy taking pictures of the birds and keep my camera handy next to the window. Most of the birds that I see are sparrows and when I see a goldfinch I get more excited. They are all very fun to watch though.
Thanks for reading and viewing, I hope you enjoyed the pictures.
