American Goldfinch
The American Goldfinch, Carduelis tristis, is seen year around, but in larger numbers here in the summertime. The male in breeding colors is a beautifully marked bird while the female is a pretty plain jane. They really enjoy the two 50ft rows of zinnias I plant every year, as well as the sunflowers and the sweet sorghum seedheads.
