LesserGoldfinches

Oh,my, I had to take a few days off from something so did so from this blog. I finished the big comments for the BLM Arkansas River Travel Management Plan then had to really focus on my new duties as the Chair of the Arkansas Basin Roundtable's Non-consumptive Needs Assessment committee (the length of the name just tires me out).The male Lesser Goldfinch in these pics was busy singing, something that birds of this species seems to do more frequently than most. This was one of several Lesser Goldfinch of the green-backed form that was flying around my yard earlier this week. Lesser Goldfinch breed in so many different habitat they seem ubiquitous throughout most of SE Colorado. Read more about them and hear their song.
