Winter Coat

The temperature has changed into the fall mode:  less hot, sometimes rainy and a coolness in the air.  Another thing that indicates our fall arrival here is the less bright coat and the dark beak the American Goldfinches have changed into.

"My dark beak and less bright coat
protect me from predators when trees
begin to lose leaves pretty soon."


"See, I don't have flashing yellow any more." 
 
 
" Ready to get some thistle seeds now."
