June 2025. While photographing the Towhee, this American Goldfinch landed not to far in the distance that I could capture it. It didnt stay there long. Took about 6 shots and was lucky enough to get this one.

Small birds like the Goldfinch don’t stay in one place very long. Glad you were able to get this one.
Yes, I was lucky on this one!
Nice shot!
Thanks Paul!
