Spinus tristis

PSALM 40:5, MANY, O LORD MY GOD, ARE THY WONDERFUL WORKS WHICH THOU HAST DONE, AND THY THOUGHTS WHICH ARE TO US-WARD: THEY CANNOT BE RECKONED UP IN ORDER UNTO THEE: IF I WOULD DECLARE AND SPEAK OF THEM, THEY ARE MORE THAN CAN BE NUMBERED.

For a long time we were confusing the Goldfinch with the Pine Warbler. So, we haven't paid as close attention as we should. As of January 2019, they don't come everyday but when they do come they often come with the House Finches. As of 2020, they have not returned. We had some concerns has it appears that our Goldfinches seems to have the eye problems that have been reported across the nation. Hopefully, we will see them in the future again.
