Wild Bird Wednesday & SkyWatch - More of the Goldfinch

I was hoping to show this little songster on the other end of the 

house as well as he followed and serenaded me while I moved 

from back to front garden and back again.

No such luck, I just can't unfreeze the file.

Goldfinches were brought to this continent by homesick English 

immigrants early in the 19th century and are little charmers.

Looking down at me, looking up to check on the surroundings 

and going back to lifting his voice and trilling again

until it was time to turn in with the sun dropping below the 

skyline and washing gold up into the dark clouds.

Wild Bird Wednesday & Nature Notes - European Goldfinch

This little fellow serenaded me from his perch on my TV 

aerial all spring long. 

 My bedroom is directly below and he 

did a great job singing me to sleep for my post-prandial nap.

At first he would take off as soon as I lifted my camera

but soon came back again.

I'll post some better pictures and continue this little tale when 

my iPhoto can be unfrozen so I can shift them to Photoshop, 

it is  such a bother at the moment.

I have no Idea why it is being so obstreperous.
