My Male Goldfinches Have Turned Yellow💛

This is an iPhone photo from my window.


The male Goldfinches are wearing their bright yellow feathers for the mating season.



Read more about my breeding male goldfinches, the state bird of New Jersey, Iowa, and Washington HERE.  The photo of this breeding male above is from this link. The females don't wear these lovely yellow spring feathers but they get to choose the handsomest mate wearing them.

Missy is coming this morning to spend the night and it's a lovely Good Friday. See you later. xo

New Bird Book for My Library


Stopped in an Old Bookshop yesterday and looked up to see this quote.
"I cannot live without books."
Thomas Jefferson


I took off the book jacket to take this photo of my purchase.


This is a nice addition to my bird books and it's very informative. The dust jacket was back on the book for this photo. It wasn't the book I was looking for but I am enjoying it. I've been looking for a large bird identification book I got rid of for some reason and if I ever come across it again I will buy it back.  I paid $7.00 for this used book in fine condition. Here is a book search with prices starting at $1.00 and going up to $60.00 for a first edition. Happy Hunting.
