Not so gold finch…

American Goldfinch: Kennebunk, Maine, USA — I still have thistle seed out for the Goldfinches, which have not been regular at our feeders since early August. A bunch came through last week, on their way south, but we have one that is hanging around. Not so gold, but a still a pretty little bird. It is, of course, just as interested in the sunflower seed feeder I moved up onto the deck feeding station from out under the trees, so maybe that is really what is keeping it. 🙂 Sony Rx10iv at 600mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Polarr and Apple Photos. Got to love that bokeh. ISO 400 @ f4 @ 1/500th.

    Wonderful shot. We had a Freeze warning this week and it seems to have kicked of the migration. Vultures are everywhere. They are not as pretty as your Gold Finch but a great indicator. Migration here in Florida seems to get later every year.
