Colorful Lesser Goldfinches

In summer, I often saw Lesser Goldfinches eating dandelion seeds and sunflower leaves.  Since then I have not seen them much,  until today when it's been cold and rainy around the freezing point.

Here is Mrs. Lesser Goldfinch.
"I heard you've got my favorite seeds here, so I decided to return.  I can get along with other birds such as an Anna's Hummingbird who's right behind me."


Here is Mr. Lesser Goldfinch.
"I've got a family of five.  You can see one right behind to my left."

 Backyard Owner:  "Welcome back!  I like your colorful yellow in the cold winter months."
