Love it!!! I wouldn't have guessed Goldfinch! By the time that they get down here, in our winter, they are showing a bit more of their "springtime color"!?!?!?

Beautiful banner! Big Grin

Margaret, instead of snow, how about sending me some of those trained birds of yours! Hilarious! Another stunning banner!

Most of the goldfinch at my house are still very bright yellow, which I wasn't expecting. I adore them, and they are so trusting that I can walk within 2 feet of them before they take off. I've gotten closer to a couple, but I think it's because they were so busy eating that they didn't notice me.

Thank you Tara! I tip my hat to you. There are a lot of juvies here this time of year also, I have had flocks of perhaps a hundred or more on the ground and in the feeders. nodding

mcash70,
Love the banner. I just sent you a T-mail about it - but now I see I should have posted it here. I have 'copy/paste' it here so everyone can read it:

Just want to let you know your banner keeps cracking me up. I keep trying to think what might be going through his little bird imagination. The bird....the fourth from the left....with his little face buried in the snow.

"Hey, where are my feet?"

"This stuff is cold!"

"What am I standing on?"

"So that's what snow cones taste like!"
