Description

The American Goldfinch is a common visitor in the Northeast US and Canada and is often seen at feeders in the summertime. The bright yellow color of the male makes it easy to spot in the summer.

However, the American Goldfinch prefers weedy fields. They love Thistle seeds and It is theorized that the female delays nesting until the thistle plant seeds as feeding her young thistle seed discourages Cowbirds from leaving their eggs in her nest.

Goldfinches are beautiful birds to watch and they are a favorite of my grandson who requested this painting.
