Goldfinches: Small Birds, Big Payoff
Dressed in yellow and performing a variety of aerial
acrobatics, goldfinches seem destined more for the Big
Top than the backyard. As they swoop from one invisible
peak to another, you’re reminded of a certain circus
counterpart who could also “fly through the air with the
greatest of ease.”
With a mix of daredevil acrobatics, dazzling color
and beautiful song, goldfinches are capable of putting
on a great show. The best part is that you don’t have to
leave the comforts of your backyard to see it.
Though goldfinches
carry the reputation of being finicky eaters, you’ll
have no problem finding a suitable offering that will
please their palate. Goldfinches love to eat fresh, dry
Nyjer® (thistle).
Catering to goldfinches allows you to see first rate
performances time and time again without expending a lot
of time, energy and resources. You’ll be amazed by how
captivating these little birds can be. Like all great
performers, goldfinches always leave their audiences
wanting more.
