Wild Bird Wednesday - Good Omen


This little sweetie the color of happiness landed outside my kitchen window this morning. I'm calling it a good omen because right afterwards I successfully installed a new modem on my computer without any geek squad assistance. Hopefully this will resolve several weeks of DSL/Internet connection problems that I've been having. Sorry I haven't been able to get around to visit you lately. Will remedy that real soon if computer problems remain fixed. Oh, about bird ID - this is the first time I've seen this beauty since starting to notice and try to photograph birds. Haven't spent a lot of time trying to ID "Sunshine", but will guess American Goldfinch? Linking to Wild Bird Wednesday .

  1. Love your shots. I hadn't noticed these until one landed on my purple flower right at my deck door last year. I believe the babies are visiting this year. Don't you just adore their bright color? I sure do enJOY them.

  5. Haven't seen any goldfinches since we took the feeders down. Their spring/summer plumage is gorgeous!

  7. Fay isn't that a real buzz, not only seeing that beautiful goldfinch in your garden - I agree 'happiness' and 'sunshine' 'cheery' when I see yellow birds featured. Well done with your computer issues!
