buckee Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 We have a pair of American Goldfinch hanging around now. What beautiful little birds they are. I carved a few pairs of these beautiful birds once. They were way over in the neighbors yard and I had to use full zoom, so they ain't perfect. Can you see the female ? Hard to spot at first glance. My best carving of them. I actually won a ribbon at a carving competition for these guys once. In the novice catigory of course...LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alisha Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 Beautiful. They are definitely up there on my list of favorite birds. That adorable "potato-chips" they sing never gets old. Love the carvings too of course! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 They sure are pretty birds Steve, been seeing a lot of them in the yard a ways off, I need to get a different bird feed for our feeder back there. Saw a couple on the electric fence wire this morning. I need to get a better lens for my camera to get some good closeups of the birds.
