Well done. Yes, the sun would make a big difference to the shimmering neck, and it would make a big difference to all of us I think! Enough of Springter! The Goldfinches are pretty and certainly enjoying their meal.Glohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09532995590131801962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626959970978663576.post-4478044730366877502011-02-18T13:03:08.006+00:002011-02-18T13:03:08.006+00:00I enjoyed all three of those John!

They do seem very intelligent birds to me. <br /><br />I only see the Stock Dove in my garden occasionally but I am always pleased when it does visit. <br /><br />I too have noticed less Goldfinches in my garden recently, I do hope it is nothing to do with that horrible disease!<br /><br />Have a good weekend John :)ShySongbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08148381873578585910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626959970978663576.post-34790116637586770162011-02-18T12:16:52.075+00:002011-02-18T12:16:52.075+00:00We are just back from the Lakes...Skelwith area an...We are just back from the Lakes...Skelwith area and were thrilled to see quite a few goldfinches around a feeding pole.
