Goldfinches in the juniper, a chickadee at the feeder, and a robin working the mossy ground.Asleep in the Juniper
I was moving slowly under the juniper during my lunch break, camera up, half-expecting everything to scatter. A flock of dark birds had already bolted over the fence and away. So when I spotted the American Goldfinch perched on a branch a metre or so in front of me, I assumed the same thing was about to happen. It didn't move. I took a few frames. Still nothing. I edged closer. The bird sat there, rounded and fluffed, head slightly bowed. Then I noticed: its eyes were closed. Not blinking. […]Pale Flier
This soft‑focused image of an American goldfinch in midair is actually a photo bomb. I was focused on a different bird when this one slipped into the corner of the frame. The result feels like a pastel made of light and motion, a small burst of color drifting through the shot at just the right moment.
Step into a world where even the smallest moments—like the glint in a bird's eye—tell their own story.

Resilience ... A tiny American #Goldfinch clings to the slender branch of a redbud tree as temperatures drop and night falls. I captured this photo January 2024 just as another snow storm began.

The American Goldfinch Waiting Game
This past summer, American Goldfinch discovered my nyjer feeder, bringing brilliant yellow plumage and nervous energy to my backyard.
