Thanks for joining in on the photo challenge! I love how you captured the bright colors of the male, despite the rainy weather. We've put out thistle socks in earlier years, so I know what you mean about how they are pigs with wings, LOL. But it's worth it because they are so much fun to watch.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05347598432040432610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3341838200122042033.post-35268414676535701342013-07-09T20:26:01.003-04:002013-07-09T20:26:01.003-04:00We love gold finches, too, Michele.

My first grade teacher told me that it was because the papa bird was the guardian of the nest and attracted all attention away from it when need be. Were we all taught that?
