A Lesser Goldfinch on a Cresote bush branch.

Thanks

Delightful portrait of this specimen.

We see these guys every once in a while up in the Pacific NW but they are not a common sight.

It may be called a Lesser Goldfinch but I don't see anything lesser about it with that nice yellow coloring.

That's a beautiful bird.

Thanks everyone. I very much appreciate your comments.

Fantastic - the out of focus background flowers and branches that frame the bird take it to the next level, making it art rather than just a good bird portrait. I love goldfinches and wish we had more of them up here in western Washington where they are our state bird!
