wtnhunt Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Pretty sure these are goldfinch anyways, Chris will correct me if I am wrong. Been seeing these little guys fairly regularly, snapped a few pics out the window, so the quality is not the greatest. First one there is also a hummingbird at the feeder.

The birds seem to really like, probably the only reason I have not yanked it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfletch7441 Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 Question about goldfinch I love finches, we're lucky to have quite a few around. Quick question. I saw a finch feeder the other day that had the perch rods above the holes where the feed came out. The picture on the box showed the birds hanging upside down to eat out of it. Anyone know why?

Ben [/ QUOTE ] Finches are the only bird that can hang upside down and feed. They design those feeders like that to discourage sparrows and other pig birds like that.
