The American Goldfinch
Day 244 / 365
Why did the little bird get in trouble at school?
He got caught peeping on a test.
Interesting Fact: The American Goldfinch changes from winter plumage to breeding plumage by a complete molt of its body feathers. It is the only member of its family to have this second molt in the spring; all the other species have just one molt each year in the fall.

Cute picture. I just re-watched the movie “The Good Year” and was reminded of all the amazing species of birds!
I do enjoy that move as well. The locations and the wildlife are so amazing. 🙂

Our state bird! Which we very seldom see, because of all the environmental destruction around here.
Sorry to hear that, there is a lot of them in North Jersey right now. 🙂
